On Game Sales

PC, video game sales skyrocket reports the USA Today, while also noting "Sales of video and computer games with 'Mature' ratings for violence, language or sexual content fell from 2.6 million units in 1998 to 1.2 million in 1999, according to figures compiled by the NPD Group and released Wednesday by the Interactive Digital Software Association," though their take on this is "...analysts said that may have more to do with the phenomenal popularity of Pokemon than concern over tragedies such as the Columbine High School massacre." Thanks Toughguy. Also, the latest GameDAILY Top 20 Selling Entertainment Titles for January 9 - 15, 2000 is online, with Q3A holding at #6, UT up to #8, Rogue Spear up to #10, and Half-Life dropping to #19 (it looks like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, in the #1 spot, is going to be as hard to move as Regis' hair). Also of note is the GameDAILY Top 10 Selling Mac Titles for January 9 - 15, 2000, where the top two spots are held by Quake III Arena and Unreal Tournament, in that order. Till next time, I'm Casey Kasem, saying, "keep your hands in your pockets, and your feet in the air."
