When it comes to sales don't consoles 98% of the time sell more then on PC.
And yeah 25 milion when they are free,those sell like hotcakes :D
In truth, i doubt there is any game that has sold 20-25M copies on its own.
You will find thst if you look at every game that you mention that hits that number it was because the game was bundled with hardware on way or another.
And realistically speaking, a game doesn't even have to sell that much. In the time of the PS2 era all a game needed to do was sell 1M copies to be deemed a success. Then "platinum hits" were a thing. With HD gaming that number went up to around 1.5-2.5M. If any game can manage 2M and up now it's at least turning a profit.
Minecraft doesn't count.... there are probably toasters that the game was released on.

Interesting, can you make a thread to inform us about the +50M and +100M sellers. It's very important. |
Yup, the higher the better... Also let's put facebook and ios/android games on the rank and show that actually the rank is totally dominated by titles not released on consoles =]

Why not? It manages to break records at many systems. And it is one of the only games that never had a sale.
It's hard for any IP to sell 25M in 10 years aside from a few exceptions, let alone new IP.. You would basically need a yearly or biyearly franchise to sell those numbers
Splatoon for example would need a new game every 2 years and sell 5M each to just hit that number :/
