Modern Warfare 2 is Amazon UK's biggest seller

Retailer releases chart of top selling games since its launch

To celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of its launch Amazon UK has revealed its top ten best-selling games, a list which is heavy on the familiar franchises.

  1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
  2. Call of Duty: Black Ops
  3. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
  4. Grand Theft Auto V
  5. Call of Duty: Black Ops II
  6. FIFA 10
  7. FIFA 13
  8. FIFA 12
  9. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
  10. Zumba Fitness

Grand Theft Auto V makes an appearance despite only launching September 17.

"Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto and FIFA are three of the largest entertainment franchises in the world, so it's no surprise to see them dominating the top ten best-selling games chart," said Amazon UK's Ketu Patel.

"The success of Skyrim suggests that there is a real appetite for epic fantasy games, whilst Zumba Fitness's appearance in tenth place shows just how big Nintendo Wii's fanbase is in the UK."

In August Amazon launched its digital games service in the UK, and the company is currently rumoured to be readying an Android console.
