How did Rayman origins not get in the top 3 for its month? I haven't playued it yet (waiting for the inevitable price drop) but I've heard nothing but good things about it, especially from this board.

darkx congratulates SuperNiceDog. Now go find Nice Dad and email Hungry Shark.
Man, FIFA 12 is really close to my Top 5 this year (which is really ****ing impressive, given the year), but I know it would just get shattered in Round 1, since I don't think anyone on B8's played it. =(
Magicka and Legend of Heroes are both in, leaving only 5 open spots!

It came out the same month as Uncharted 3, Skyward Sword, Skyrim, Super Mario 3D Land, and Assassin's Creed: Revelations, which was November's top five. Add to that the fact that Saints Row 3 and Sonic Generations finished ahead of it too; Rayman finished tied for 8th with King of Fighters XIII. Just too much star power to go up against.
