Sad to see Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, and Ratchet & Clank even Zack & Wiki so low as in my opinion these are very good games. Mario Galaxy is a Million seller, which is a rarity these days. Crysis and Unreal Tourny III tank as these mark the first appearance of PC games (in orange) on the NPD sales numbers we do.
