[info]cdjapan2010

Guiness World Records disclosed their " All Time Top 50 Video Game Series"
voted on by the readers.

1:"Halo" Series
2:"The Legend of Zelda" Series
3:"Call of Duty" Series
4:"Guitar Hero" Series
5:"Metal Gear" Series
6:"Super Mario Brothers" Series
7:"World of Warcraft" Series
8:"Gears of War" Series
9:"Super Smash Bros" Series
10:"Grand Theft Auto" Series

4 Japanese games were listed in the top 10 with "The Legend of Zelda" series stole No.2, "Metal Gear" landed No.5, "Super Mario Brothers" series claimed No.6 and "Super Smash Bros" series ranked No. 9. dicoot
50:Pro Evolution Soccer

 

These are great results because foreign invasion is a necessity for the Japanese game industry. 3 out of 4 games are from Nintendo. "Metal Gear" was the only non-Nintendo game voted in the list.

This chart is quite different from the top sellers in Japan. Compared to the Japanese top-selling game list, the Guiness list includes more violent games and family games which reflects what is preferred by overseas gamers. While "Dragon Quest" and "Final Fantasy" are rival games in Japan, "Dragon Quest" wasn't even listed in the top 50.


CDJapan started offering games.
We are planning to add more and more to our collection.
