MCV has compiled a list of the UK’s top 10 best-selling games in the first half of 2010, revealing Ubisoft’s Just Dance as the year’s biggest seller.
The Wii dancing game phenomenon has sold 940,358 units this year alone, not including sales in the latter part of 2009 – the game was released November 27, 2009.
