Nice thread, lots of work went into it!

For Activision, did you count Blizzard games? I know VGC has terrible data for PC sales but a lot of their games passed the 10 million mark like Overwatch, Diablo III, World of Warcraft and StarCraft.

I counted what VGC had as Activision (Unfortunately they own Blizzard =p)

And unfortunately these 4 weren't show as over 10M. But surely I will count if we have a source. I'm in the process of reviewing the OP to add these.

Tomorrow I'll update the table. Text is already corrected. Total count is over 100 titles already. Or over 1B SW on a handful of games.
