I wish Amnesia would go on sale. Not that I don't think it's worth $20 (I already have it and definitely is worth more than that), but a sale would give the game some much-needed exposure. More people need to know about the best survival horror game in years.

I must admit I'm surprised myself. Especially as CoD:Blops has completely dropped off the list. Admittedly I think it's a crappy game, but it seemed to be selling quite well before - easily outselling Civ V.

Black Ops is still the number 1 selling game on Steam, even throughout the week.

Here's the thing... Blue compiles this list from the official (and automated) weekly top sellers RSS feed that Steam has and updates every Sunday. The problem with that feed is that it sometimes spits out more than 10 games at a time, and sometimes two or even three games share the same rank in the list. Meaning you can have 2 games which were both the 7th best selling game of the week. In cases like this, I believe Blue has a policy of only listing the last game took a particular rank. So if Black Ops was mentioned first, and then later the feed also mentioned Civ 5 as the top seller, he will only list Civ 5. That's what we see here.

It's a bug with the automated feed, something that Valve doesn't seem to care enough to fix.

edit - this is the feed in case anyone is interested - http://store.steampowered.com/feeds/weeklytopsellers.xml

It's bizarre since COD is currently listed as a top seller and CIV isn't.
