I always thought that LOTRO is going to sell a lot, but I never expected to be the number one selling game in April. Could it be the first true WoW killer? Who knows.

So what are your thoughts?  

Wow given all the different Sims 2 titles still making the top 20 its just amazing.  I know it was the best selling game franchise in history but I didn't know it still was the top 20 in April 2007.  That game is just a juggernaut!!

Yeah it's very strange that Sims still is selling so good, how can people continue to buy the these addons. You would think people would be bored with the game after finishing the original.

Well shooters are not about creating a virtual self.  Sims is like Myspace.  It gives the user the ability to create a virtual persona, and that seems very popular these days.  World of Warcraft and MMOs are the same way, and other games with charactar creation seem to do well.  Rainbow Six Vegas on 360 has a great persistent charactar creation feature that works very well and it really hooked me into that game.  Customizability and charactar creation are things people want these days.

yes they are, and why shouldn't they have them?  it gives the user the chance to play the game the way they want to.  not how some developer thinks they should play.  i don't think it's just character creation, i think it has a lot to do with the freedoms that you are allowed in video games.  anymore, linear video games should be a thing of the past.

Girls are buying Sims.  Everyone of my girl friends only play Sim, and most buy every single one.  

 

1. Warcraft III Battle Chest-Blizzard

MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I'M AM INVICIBLE!!! 

I swear the Sims is ridiculous. All their expansions are the same game, yet they still can place 5 or 6 games in a top 20.

Flat out ridiculous.

We need some new games, quick.

So, assuming you consider yourself to have a "good taste" in games, you're not normal?
