Next-Generation has compiled the top selling 100 games from the last year across North America and  Europe, including sales figures. What a pity, according to this list, not one MMO made the top 100 for best sellers.

100. Ninja Gaiden Sigma
PS3 Exclusive
470K
88%
June/Action
Tecmo/Team Ninja
Gavin Ogden (GamesRadar): "Once mastered, you'll find an immersive action romp full of original challenges, incredible environments and interesting characters. This game might have been around for years, but the intensity of the gameplay has yet to be bettered."

 


99. Cooking Mama: Cook Off
Wii Exclusive
470K
61%
March/Other (Cooking)
Majesco/Office Create
Sterling McGarvey (GameSpy): "Simple exercises, such as rolling pasta dough, become torturous experiences, not because the game itself is challenging, per se, but largely because the controls don't feel precise or intuitive enough for the nature of the gameplay."

98. Naruto: Ninja Council 3
DS Exclusive
470K
57%
May/License
D3Publisher/Eighting
D.F. Smith (G4 TV): "It seems like the developer started with that good idea, but couldn't figure out how to make the details work -- how to design levels that worked with the controls, instead of constantly getting in the way."

97. NASCAR 08
PS2/PS3/X360
490K
56%
July/License
EA/EA Tiburon
Sam Bishop (IGN): "...NASCAR's underlying experience is so incredibly average. With so many amazing racing games, from sims to arcade crash-a-thons, NASCAR 08 no longer fills a niche larger than the actual sport, and while that may be good enough for die-hard fans of the sport, it's definitely not going to satisfy casual racing fans."
