Weekly PC Sales Bring No Clear Winner (Updated: Winner Revealed)
by Chris Faylor, Mar 04, 2010 1:30pm PSTOnce again speaking to the strength of exclusive offerings, digital distributors Steam, Direct2Drive and Impulse have unveiled sales charts from the week of February 21.
Due to the strong performance of Steam and Impulse's various exclusive games, there's no clear winner, so to speak--every outlet has an entirely different top five, with BioShock 2 and Mass Effect 2 marking the only two titles to appear on more than one list.
Update: There is a clear winner after all--in the form of Battlefield: Bad Company 2--one that was temporarily obscured as Steam seemingly removes pre-orders from its "Weekly Top Sellers" RSS after a game is released, as BFBC2 and SupCom 2 were this Tuesday. Thankfully, Blue's News archived the initial listing on Monday.
