Modern Warfare 2 came out last week, and finished last week as the #1 game on Steam. On Direct2Drive, however, it didn't fare as well because IGN's online storefront wasn't selling the game.PC Sales Charts

In its place, then, came Dragon Age, which continues to sell at a pace I honestly wouldn't have predicted coming into this holiday season. Which isn't a bad thing! No, I'm pleasantly surprised.
