Don't cheat ;-). Vote first and check your answer against the link (at the end of this post). This best seller had logged 21 Million copies sold in the year 2000 according to The Guinness Book of Records......and sales continue to this day with a new version due for release next year.

i was so sure it was the sims.............
but after you look at the answer yes its believable that the flilght simulator had to be it. It's beeen around for long and you do tend to see at lying about in many homes/offices............including mine........

wonder why not many of us became pilots though!

[expertno.1]

Quake is very old and a good selling game

[Strider]

I was just googling to find out more about the best selling games and the number of exact copies they all sold when i found this. The 10 most controversial games of all time. The number one is doom followed by a list of nine others. An interesting read. Do check it out. Im planning to buy and play some of those games. :wink:

Come on guys, do we always have to crib about why a poll hasen't listed this game or that? Don't we know that no such poll will be ever able to include all the best games?

[Keith Sebastian]

[achacko@dataone.in; ctrl_alt_del] Gentlemen (ladies?), this isn't about "the best game". It's about "the best selling game". Anyway, it's not my intention to start an argument here.
