Wanted to try something else, (I like looking at numbers, sue me)

8) Halo 3 11.07 Million (MC: 94, GR: 93.54%)
9) Super Smash Bros Brawl 9.52 Million (MC: 93, GR: 92.75%)
10) Super Mario Galaxy 8.72 Million (MC: 97, GR: 97.46%)
Some general notes, Wii Sports is a tough game to really include since for the most part it comes bundled with the console except in Japan so it is a game that has been sold separately but number is highly inflated due to being included in the package.
Modern Warfare 2 is the only game on the list in which versions were combined. It was only done that way since came across both before hitting number 10. If you combine multiple versions Modern Warfare will also be in the top 10, but the first version of any MW is outside of the top 10.
The same with GTA IV actually.
I could have went either way with Wii Fit Plus since it really serves as an expansion pack for the original Wii Fit, so if you want to combine numbers or whatever feel free to do it.
The only game to be on both the highest rated and best selling games list is Super Mario Galaxy.
And seeing some of the gaps in the GameRankings/MetaCritic numbers is interesting, but already knew they didn't all count the same review/use different ways to find numerically values for scales.
