US PC CHART: Conan rules roost (mcvuk.com)

Conan rules the NPD's Top 10, beating WoW and The Sims!

Twisted | June 03, 2008 | News | PC

The popular game, Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures, for the PC has risen above even the best PC games. In US sales charts, it placed first, beating the "mighty" World of Warcraft and the Sims series, both of which are extremely popular PC games. The Collector's Edition claims the third place spot, proving how popular Conan has become. As well as dominating the United States sales charts, it has taken a top spot in the European sales charts.

1. Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures
2. World of Warcraft: Battle Chest
3. Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures Collector's Edition
4. The Sims 2 Double Deluxe
5. The Sims 2 Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff Expansion Pack
6. World of Warcraft
7. World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade Expansion Pack
8. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
9. The Sims 2 FreeTime Expansion Pack
10. Crysis

Age of Conan makes its debut at the top of the US sales charts, beating out Blizzard's mighty World of Warcraft and EA's best selling The Sims series. The recently released MMORPG is also dominating European sales charts as well. Funcom's game is so popular that even its collector's edition nabs the 3rd place spot. Unfortunately this wasn't a good week for Sins of a Solar Empire which is knocked out of the top 10 since debuting in February.

For a game I've never even heard of it seems to be doing well. Probably because I don't play PC games.

A new game beat a game that's been out for 2 years in sales for a month?
Its way more interesting to me that WoW is still #6 after all this time...
