Thanks to Kotaku.com.au, a list of the top 10 selling games of 2013 in Australia has been released. Check the list out here:
1. Grand Theft Auto V
Was there ever any question? GTA V was the fastest selling entertainment product in history. Rarely are games released with such anticipation and excitement, and this action-adventure game more than lived up to the hype.
2. Call of Duty: Ghosts
No surprise here either. With the ability to create your own soldier from the ground up, you fight as part of a mysterious group known as “Ghost” against a technologically superior global power that has crippled the country.
3. Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag
Using young captain Edward Kennedy, you are drawn into an ancient war that may destroy everything the pirates have built for themselves. Set in the waters of the Caribbean in 1715, this is widely regarded as the best game of the series.
4. Battlefield 4
Featuring an interactive environment that reacts to your every move, you have the opportunity to dominate land, air, and sea. Features a much beloved multiplayer mode, as well as a challenging campaign mode.
5. FIFA 14

mode, or a multi-player mode.
9. Battlefield 3
Another game that was not released in 2013, Battlefield 3 still proved to be extremely popular. Nine great maps set the stage for up to 54 players to fight it out in a variety of urban, industrial, and military locations.
10. Tomb Raider
