Speaking to Joystiq, the giant e-tailer’s list had very little surprises in the physical copy market, although the digital distribution list did offer a surprise at the top.
Leading the physical list, as expected, was Call of Duty: MW3. The game brought in over $1 billion in revenue, and is a blockbuster by any standard. On the digital side, COD was not as popular, placing in 8th. Following behind COD in physical sales were non-surprises like Just Dance, Skyrim, Battlefield 3 and Batman: Arkham City.
The leader on the digital side was more surprising, with the list being led by Square Enix’s Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the third game in the series. The game, while popular, was critically panned for the most part for being “too boring.”
