With the game now out, you’d think sales of MMO Aion would have died down. That maybe it was one of those “get in early” types of games, with sales dying down once it was released. Nope.
NCSoft’s MMO is still #1 on both the Steam and Direct2Drive charts, to the point where it kept the release of Batman: Arkham Asylum out of top spot.

Regardless Batman Deserves the top spot, it’s gotta be a contender for Game of the Year thus far. It’s an epic title.
