Ever wanted to know what the best selling PSN games are? Well, here it is. The top 10 PSN purchases since the system's launch.
- flOw
- Mortal Kombat II
- Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection
- PAIN
- Warhawk
- High Velocity Bowling
- Super Stardust HD
- Calling All Cars
- Aquatopia
- Everyday Shooter
Are you surprised that
flOw is the best selling PSN title so far? We are as well. Even more surprising: how well
Mortal Kombat II seemingly did. At the very least, we're glad to see great games like
Super Stardust HD and
Everyday Shooter make the list as well.
The top downloaded demos also include:
- Gran Turismo HD Concept
- Uncharted
- Ninja Gaiden Sigma
- Heavenly Sword
- The Simpsons Game
- Need for Speed ProStreet
- Ratchet and Clank
- Burnout Paradise
- Motorstorm
- Turok
We're not surprised by the popularity of
Gran Turismo HD Concept. As the first taste of the new generation of
GT games, it earned quite a bit of attention when it was released more than a year ago.
Finally, the top PSN downloads from Europe include:
- Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection
- Warhawk
- flOw
- LocoRoco Cocoreccho!
- Mortal Kombat II
- Super Rub a Dub
- Calling All Cars
- Gripshift
- Lemmings
- Super Stardust HD
Isn't it interesting to note the huge disparity between American and European tastes? (Besides
Mortal Kombat II ... for some strange reason.)

How did SSDHD do THAT BAD? It's one of the most addicting games I have ever played. Also CaC. That game is pretty habit forming.

The subliminal lure of ducks and Sony products as of the last few years.

People didn't know it was such a load of crap before they bought it.

Congrats flOw!!!!
And Organic_Shadow, I too am extremely surprised at how "poorly" (we don't know how all the others did or how many "copies" it sold) SSDHD did, especially because it had more of a mass appeal...
Well, I'm just glad that flOw is still on top!

Nice to see warhawk doing really well. (I own and love it) But it sucks that super star dust HD and everyday shooter did not do as well :(

Why couldn't Sony include numbers with those lists? Would've been nice to know (at least approximately) how many people bought those games.
They also didn't number them. Does that mean that fl0w wasn't necessarily the best selling game since the PSN launch?

NO WAY, how did PAIN get up there and so high. Not only has it not been out for long but I heard of many disliking it and others not even trying it.

How the hell did High Velocity Bowling beat out SSDHD, Calling All Cars, and Everyday Shooter? I'd much rather have all the other ones over HVB considering they're all $9.99.

Lol that was my initial thought. But then it really only JUST came out.
SSHD, CaC and Everday Shooter definitely need to be higher up on the list though.

Flow and everyday shooter are the two games I keep thinking of purchasing a pre-loaded credit card to buy (along with all that Rock Band DLC!)

flOw = low priced, been out for ages and shows off motion control. Back in the day when everyone wanted to show up their wii owning friends that the PS3 could do the same thing, this was the game to get.

SSHD should have topped all lists. It's by far the best PSN game at the moment.
