Bethesda's The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim struck a mighty blow for RPGs managing 6th, with sports pinching 8th, 9th and 10th thanks to EA Sports' FIFA and Madden NFL franchises.

It was Black Ops that proved the most popular Call of Duty, followed by Modern Warfare 3 and then 2. Epic's Gears of War 3 landed 7th and GTA IV is still cool to play coming 11th.
