I had no idea call of duty was such a big deal. It’s not my jam so I never notice it.
This is why Sony was making such a big deal about Call of Duty during the discussions about Microsoft acquiring Activision (owners of the Call of Duty franchise). Sony wanted reassurance that the Call of Duty games would still come out on the PlayStation consoles, and not be exclusive to Microsoft’s platforms (Xbox and Windows). When you see that Call of Duty has been the best selling game nearly every year recently, you can understand Sony’s plea.
TLDR: Call of Duty.
And Pokémon, holy crap. The same games were the best sellers multiple years in a row??
Between the cards and games, Pokemon was all everyone would talk about for several years in a row
We gamers like comfort zones ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Call of Duty… Call of Duty… Call of Duty… Animal Crossing
Did something happen in 2020?
Pandemic.
I’m surprised that Gran Turismo was number one is 2005. I remember Star Wars Battlefront II being the hot new game everyone was playing at the time, and Star Wars being huge in general due to Episode III releasing that year. Just the fact that a PS2 exclusive driving sim, beat out a multi-platform Star Wars game that was one of the most hyped releases at the time is insane to me.
This just made me miss the 90’s.
16-bit is enough for me :)
