And The Best-Selling Game In Australia In 2008 Was…?

Wii_Wii_Fit_ss02.jpg

Wii Fit! Chart tracking GfK has slipped to Jason Hill a list of the best-selling games of last year. Cementing Nintendo’s stranglehold on gaming this generation, six of the top ten places went to Wii games, with a further two going to DS titles. That leaves just a couple of spots left over for the 360 and PS3… and you might be surprised by how that turned out.

Sure, it’s Grand Theft Auto IV – no shock there. But what does surprise is that the PS3 version came out on top. Although we suspect the final sales figures were pretty close, it seems Australians – unlike our British and American counterparts – prefer our free-roaming crime sims to come on Blu-ray discs.
