Im just curious, why isnt gamespot posting the games that are topping the charts in febuary??. Is it because Aliens vs Predator has topped the US and the UK charts??. They were so quick to update the news section when Mass Effect 2 was topping the charts at the end of january . But now Aliens vs Predator , a game which was bashed to the ground by Gamespot for all the wrong reasons has topped the charts in the US / Uk and everywhere else. Its already march today and gamespot still hasnt updated the news section. Looks like GS wanted to save the embarassment from their viewers. Seriously Gamespot ops should grow that noodle in their head.

Anyway heres the link to VGChartz. AVP on top of the charts in the US and the UK.

There are bad games that sell well too, you know. Every time an entry in a popular franchise get released, it sells. That's just law. The critics score is also 6.8, so it isn't just GS that doesn't like it. As to the other scores, have you heard of opinion? DI hasn't been getting rave reviews from that many, and GS's score is very much akin to the scores of many other sites.

The website ought to be ashamed that people are buying a game that isn't that great? Scores don't dictate purchases...

It is Gamespot's opinion. There can be no "right" opinion. You shouldn't be basing your purchases and interests of the opinions of others anyways.

VGChartz isn't a reliable source. Gamespot hasn't posted sales numbers because the NPD Group hasn't released the numbers.
