I received the monthly report from the NPD Group last night while I spent all my time and money in Paris, which is where I am right now. Writing this in the Starbuck's at the Louvre. Go figure. But at least they have internet and that's exactly what I needed. So check out the sales lists.
For the month of November 2007, surprisingly Call of Duty 4 on the Xbox 360 took the top spot for the month chased by Super Mario Galaxy.

Surprisingly Assassin's Creed made a good showing even though it received some mediocre reviews. I guess the reviewers at those big places don't always know the real deal. Maybe they're not gamers, or maybe we just don't listen.
Here are the hardware sales numbers for the month.

Overall the market is crushing the previous year coming in at over $13 BILLION already with December to go. That's about twice as much as last year folks.
OK off to see the Louvre! Bonjour! Au revior!
