Crap dominates gaming chart

A BBC News article reported on the biggest selling video games of 2004.
They compiled the list (in order of sales) as follows:

1) GTA: San Andreas
2) Fifa 2005
3) Need for Speed: Underground 2
4) Simpsons: Hit and Run
5) Pro-Evolution Soccer 4
6) Sonic Heroes
7) Spider-Man 2
8) Need for Speed: Underground
9) Halo 2
10) Driv3r
11) The Incredibles
12) Sims 2
13) Burnout 3: Takedown
14) Fifa 2004
15) Call of Duty: Finest Hour
16) Harry Potter - The Prisoner of Azkaban
17) The Sims - Bustin' Out
18) Shrek 2
19) Splinter Cell: Pandora
20) LOTR - Return of the King

Notice how all of these titles (bar GTA, Halo 2, Pro Evo Soccer and Sonic Heroes) are nothing but lazy third-party crap not worth the optical media they are pressed on!
It seems like the majority of contemporary gamers aren't true gamers - Their buying habits suggest that they have no notion of what makes a game quality or classic title.

Do not underestimate the power of Playstation,... indeed!
