NPD PC Chart for the week ending on May 30, 2009

Kotaku posted the NPD results for the week of May 24 thru May 30.  Seems like every week, Maxis games bounce from the end of the list to the top of the list.  In this case, Spore received the biggest jump back up to #3.  The Sims 2 is still running strong taking the lead at #1 and it’s expansion, Apartment Life, is near the end of the list clocking in at #9.  Next week is going to be interesting…Are any Maxis games going to be dropped off due to the release of The Sims 3?  We’ll just have to wait and see!

The NPD PC results are in for the week of May 17th thru the 23rd!  Sim fans are still crazed for TS2 it appears, as The Sims 2 Double Deluxe tears up the #1 spot.  The latest expansion, Apartment Life is still holding on at #10.  As for Spore, it’s still trying to keep up – doing better but not where it should be (at the top of the list too!) coming it at #5.  Only two more weeks before I can report TS3 as the number one spot :D

NPD PC Chart for the week ending on May 16, 2009

2. The Sims 2 Double Deluxe
3. Empire: Total War
4. WoW Battle Chest
5. Left 4 Dead
6. Spore

NPD PC Chart for the week ending on April 25, 2009

Crazy…If you have been following the NPD PC charts (I have a feeling I’m the only one), you might notice that this week’s sale results are very similar to last week’s NPD chart.  EA/Maxis games are pretty much staying in the same spot, only changes is that Spore swapped to the #9 spot while Apartment Life is now at #10.  Luckily we only have one more month until TS3 is released, so I’m going to expect all of the games to shoot back to the top (I’m willing to bet Sims 2 games will start to go on sale real soon for cheap).

Results for the week of April 19 – 25 are:

1. WoW: Wrath of the Lich King
2. The Sims 2 Double Deluxe
3. WoW Battle Chest
4. Left 4 Dead
5. Empire: Total War
6. Demigod
7. Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor
8. World Of Warcraft
9. Spore
10. The Sims 2 Apartment Life
