Black Ops tops Aussie sales for the first half of 2011

Activision's Call of Duty smashed entertainment records last year when it was released, and it continues to dominate Aussie sales, claiming the top spot during the 2011 half-one sales, according to data tracker NPD Group Australia.

Pokemon Black and White brought up the second and third spots, respectively. The Aussie-developed L.A. Noire managed to take out the fourth place, despite being released only a few weeks before the end of the January 1-June 31 tracking period. Crysis 2 closed out in fifth place, with AFL Live and Lego Star Wars: The Clone Wars coming up behind in sixth and seventh. The oldest game in the list--Wii Fit Plus--sits at number eight, proving that the two-year-old fitness game still has appeal. Towards the bottom of the list, The Sims 3 comes in at number nine, while Killzone 3 closed out the list, claiming 10th place.
