Best Selling Games of 2010 So Far
Red Dead Redemption running away with it.

We've hit the halfway point of 2010, and it looks as though Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption is going to be the best selling game this year in the U.S. if things don't change dramatically.

Posted below are two groups of console game unit sales ranked from January 2010 to June 2010, provided by research firm NPD. The first is a look at the top ten individual console sales. The second is the top five sales when multiplatform games are combined. (Note: Unit sales figures could not be published)

Some things to note:

- Modern Warfare 2 is still outselling Bad Company 2, even though the title was released in November of 2009. Bad Company 2 launched in March 2010.

- Wii dominates individual sales with five titles in the top ten.

- Mass Effect 2, considered one of this year's best titles, did not chart in the top ten.

Evolution's enlightened us all with new details for its third racer, Motorstorm Apocalypse.

Speaking as part of a live web chat, the Motorstorm team fielded questions on the next post-apocalyptic racer, which boasts urban off-road racing.

Here are the main points of interest:

* 3D was always going to feature in Apocalypse ever since it was implemented in Pacific Rift.

* The team thinks that playing the game in 3D could well improve your lap time.

* Vehicle customisation allows you to create and share "your hard work and cool ideas" with other members of the community and there'll be more on that soon.

* Motorstorm Apocalypse goes all LittleBigPlanet with mode creator; a simple icon based interface allowing players to string together various actions and reactions. "We're using the very tool that the users will have on the disc to create the multitude of game modes that are initially available," said lead designer Paul Rustchynsky.

* Vehicles included in the game are; an agile Superbike, a powerful, low riding chopper a FWD Hot Hatch, a fast and grippy Supercar and a Muscle Car, which is the most technical to drive of the bunch.

* Perks are divided into three categories; boost, handling and combat.

* There are more than 40 tracks, over 30 surfaces and 13 vehicle types.

* Custom soundtracks and destruction feature both online and off.

* Destruction won't always occur in the same way every time.

* Loading screens will be replaced with cutscenes.

Het is echt overdonderend he? Ik moest gewoon om de haverklap even stil staan in dat spel om de omgeving op me in te laten werken. Zo'n schoonheid, het is bijna niet te bevatten.
