The best selling UK video games of 2011

All together, and platform by platform.

Modern Warfare 3 was the best selling video game in the UK last year, UKIE and GfK Chart-Track have revealed.

Call of Duty games have now topped the annual pile three years on the trot.

FIFA 12 finished as the second best selling UK video game of 2011, followed by publisher sibling Battlefield 3.

Surprisingly, it was Zumba Fitness that finished fourth, ahead of universally acclaimed RPG Skyrim in fifth.

Ubisoft games Just Dance 3 and Assassin's Creed: Revelations were sixth and seventh.

L.A. Noire was the eighth best selling game of the year, followed by Saints Row: The Third and Batman: Arkham City.

Digital sales are not counted, although they will be soon - UKIE plans to launch digital charts this year.

The Xbox 360 apparently the most amount of software - both in unit volume and money earned - in its history during 2011.
