Skyrim Tops UK Christmas Charts — December 19, 2011
TES V: Skyrim has broken an eight-year run in which the Number One game in the UK Christmas charts came from either Activision or EA. Even though overall sales are down from their peak, the game managed to outsell Just Dance 3 and Modern Warfare 3 to seal the top spot. The continuing popularity of the game is presumably the main reason that UESP has been getting 5-6 million page hits per day, making the site one of the top 2,000 destinations on the entire Internet over the past few weeks.
