Xbox 360 Games: Topping the Charts
Xbox 360 is setting the bar for high definition gaming. Both “Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter” (Ubisoft) and “Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion” (Bethesda) exploded software sales in March. Bethesda announced “Oblivion” shipped more than 1.7 million copies on the Xbox 360 and Windows platforms between its launch on March 20 and April 7, making it one of the fastest-selling RPGs ever. “Oblivion” has been receiving accolades from nearly every game reviewer, and has been hailed by some as “one of the best RPGs ever made.” In Europe, “Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter” topped the all-formats sales charts the week it released – replaced only by “Oblivion” two weeks later.
Of the 80 high-definition games scheduled for release by June, games being released in April include:
- “ FIFA World Cup™” (EA SPORTS)
- “FINAL FANTASY® XI” (Square Enix, Inc.)
- “Top Spin 2“ (2K Sports)
- “Major League Baseball 2K6” (2K Sports)
- “Battlefield 2: Modern Combat™” (Electronic Arts)
- “Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend” (Eidos)
