The ESRB rated the two games differently. It's a matter of semantics, but those are still two different versions. You can't even buy one of them any more.

So I guess every GOTY version/Collector's Edition of a game and when the installation of a PC game comes with an integrated patch it doesn't count either right ?

Maybe we also shouldn't count NTSC and PAL games since it's not the same version.

EA releases 3 or 4 different versions of FIFA 09 in Europe. They all have different languages.

ok, so the new top 10 non-multiversion, non-bundled (with proper exceptions) million sellers list looks like this

Didn't a significant portion of GT3's sales come from being bundled?

I'm not as familiar with Sony bundles, and I wasn't sure when I added it in there. I wouldn't consider my list definitive, since I ripped out GTA, which I think should be counted, as the whole M vs AO thing is stupid.

I would personally make the list like this (now knowing that GT3 was bundled)

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Okay so I crunched the numbers, and the absolute best-selling, single-version, single platform, non-bundled, non-Players' Choice, physical medium only, no-packed-in-hardware-or-peripheral game of all time is...

Oh crap.

crap, you are right. I forgot about that, and I just saw it a few days ago.

New list

I'm not sure if GT got bundled, but I do know if I knock another off the list, then we skip down to Wii Fit as Super Mario Allstars was bundled.

It was, but it was a bundle that actually cost more money. Yet another factor to the mix!

Wait, why aren't we counting Wii Play? It isn't bundled with any hardware...
