PC Data released its figures for the top-selling PC games for the week ending January 22, and for once, the results are actually somewhat surprising. Disney's Who Wants to be a Millionaire continues to dominate in sales, and it is still in first place after almost three months on the market. The real shocker, however, was the appearance of four budget games, most of which are PC versions of classic board games, on the top ten Hits List.
Hasbro Interactive's Centipede, Parker Brothers Classic Card Games, and Milton Bradley Classic Games took second, third, and fourth place in sales respectively. Meanwhile, Havas Interactive's Hoyle Board Games 2000 appeared on the list in tenth. List veterans Roller Coaster Tycoon, Age of Empires II, Quake III Arena, Corkscrew Follies, and Deer Hunter III made up the rest of PC Data's list.
