    I can't believe people keep buying those Madden games every year. And Wii Play outsold MP3? Are Wiimotes still that hard to get?

      Well, keep in mind that MP3 came out toward the end of the month...still, I thought it would sell more considering everyone awaited it w/ baited breath.

      Two Worlds being in the top 20 is depressing. Looks like a lot of people wanted another Oblivion fix...or something like it...

        No surprise to see Madden and Bioshock at the top.

          Wow, even High School Musical made the cut! (no pun intended) At 16! (rolls eyes)

          I'm not surprised Bioshock's up there.

            Bioshock's a great game.
            The setting is what really makes attractive to me that stood out from most other FPS. The year 1960 in an underwater paradise that's gone to hell.

              Madden will continue to cash in on their crap EVERY YEAR.

                That is until they play it and realize it's pretty terrible!

                It's good the PSP's market is starting to boost. It's been a real good year for it.

                As far as Madden goes, realize that the largest number of gamers are casual. Madden is pretty much the only thing they own and they play it for a year while we "hardcore" gamers buy a game, play it for a week, then buy a new one. Who's the real sucker?

                    Oh yeah.....so much for her Disney image. Funny how something like that can **** up a promising career. Eh, I don't get the popularity of High School Musical anyway, but I'm glad the game's doing well, I guess.

                    August has been a good month for games so far in general.
