World's best selling video game is Madden 08 football sim
If you asked most games what they think the best selling game in the World over the last three months was bet the answer would be Madden 08. More likely Grand Theft Auto or FIFA 09 but no EA's football sim out sold them all selling almost 3 million copies beating Wii Fit into second place ( maybe if you could get Wii Fit it would have won!).
Wii Fit sold just over 2 million copies while Madden sold well in the US only 36,000 copies were sold outside the homeland.
What was third? Star Wars The Force Unleashed sold 1.7 million copies to grad that place with Pokemon Platinum (with 1.5 million) in fourth fifth was Mario Kart with 1.48 million sales).
