PC download charts: 'Black Ops II,' 'Far Cry 3,' sales | Bangkok Post: tech

Super discounts led to a shake up across many PC game charts come Monday, November 26, though Black Ops II remained top of the pile on Steam and a Far Cry 3 frenzy began in earnest over on GameStop's Impulse service.

Gushing reviews for Far Cry 3 indicate that the game is as good as its predecessors; as good, if not better, than fellow action-shooter games released over the course of the year.

Seasonal sales present us with a glimpse of PC gaming's recent triumphs.

Borderlands 2, XCOM, Max Payne 3 and Skyrim return to the upper echelons of Steam's best sellers list; Skyrim and Dishonored make room for themselves on Impulse; Spec Ops: The Line and Civilization V on Gamersgate; a crop of smaller but no less admirable indie titles populate the GOG chart thanks to its 5 for $10 promo.
