NPD's PC Sales Charts June 15-21
Posted by Luke Plunkett at 5:30 PM on July 1, 2008
Few, if any, surprises here. After all, the Sporepedia didn't get to a gagillion monsters entered without people picking up the tools to enter monsters, so seeing the Spore Creature Creator at the #1 spot in the PC sales charts is a given. It also means Maxis have another game to clutter these charts up with. What, The Sims aren't doing enough business for you these days?
1. Spore Creature Creator
2. The Sims 2 Double Deluxe
3. Age of Conan
4. WoW: Burning Crusade
5. World Of Warcraft
6. WoW: Battle Chest
7. The Sims 2 FreeTime
8. The Sims 2 Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff
9. Call Of Duty 4
10. Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures

That list is pretty worthless until they can state how many units were sold.

Wish I had a better PC to play WoW. :(
@suya123: If more games had dicks, no one would ever say PC gaming is dying.

Maybe Blizzard will get a fire under their ass and release WLK if AoC keeps beating them (fat chance, I know).

@KroKan:
A LOT of people would pay 15$ to make dicks online. Definately a smart move.

@Garo: Hmm, it's possible that EA is giving the NPD its online sales data. That or Spore Creature Creator was also a product in retail stores and still sold enough copies to beat everything else.

@Nirolak:
True.
I think they count the free "SporeCC" too because I can't imagine so many people paying for it.

@Garo: Or maybe the number of PC games sold in general is embarrassingly low.

@NimbusTLD:
RETAIL sales are low. RETAIL. This doesn't take digital distribution into account which would make things very interesting...

I thought that almost all the sporeipida creatures were just demo made.

Prediction: Next months chart will have Diablo's Battlechest. Same thing happened when Starcraft 2 was announced.

@GreyFoxV1: I bet the "digital distribution" numbers are even lower than retail.
