NPD Flashback: Best selling FPS games of all time (XBX/PS2/GCN)

So FPS are popular, however what gave them their big shift in momentum was the era of Xbox/Ps2/Gc. This list is as of the end of that generation as the next one was starting.

One thing you'll notice is that the game variety and types are quite different. You'll see more than the same 4 franchises on the list, something that didn't really happen in our current generation but hopefully next generation toll be more like this one.

Nice to see MOH: Rising Sun so high up there, loved that game. Same with Red Faction, one of my fave PS2 games. Halo and Halo 2 were pretty beastly to be top, what with PS2 selling like 6 times as many consoles. Cabela's Big Game Hunts stands out like a sore thumb amidst all those great games though lol.
