Sims: More Than a Quarter Million Served
Maxis is hoping that The Sims will be its best-selling game ever.
According to early sales figures from Maxis, The Sims is its fastest-selling game ever, even outpacing Sim City 3000, 1999's second best-selling PC title, by a rate of two to one. Maxis claims that it has already shipped over 250,000 copies, and publisher Electronic Arts is manufacturing additional units to prevent shortages of the life simulator.
Official figures won't be available until next week, when PC Data finalizes the numbers for the first week of February. Could Disney's Millionaire finally be ousted from first? We'll find out soon enough.
