October Video Game Sales are in. Here are the Best Sellers

The numbers are in and gamers, and their wallets, have spoken. October sales for video games, although signigicantly lower this time of the year than previous records, reveal familiar names and some newcomers across all platforms.

October is a crucial month for game publishers as the industry prepares for the holiday shopping season. Overall, it looks like gamers spent most of their cash on new consoles rather than games, making sales of physical games this month lower than October of last year.
