Strong Guild Wars: Factions sales

ArenaNet and NCsoft have announced that "Guild Wars Factions" is now the top game in the US and UK.

"Chart-Track's weekly sales report showed Guild Wars Factions as the number one selling PC game for three consecutive weeks since its release on 28th April.

Geoff Heath, CEO of NCsoft Europe, said: "What has become increasingly obvious over the past year is that our policy of exploring new business models and pricing structures in the MMO space has proved to be a big hit with our player base, who have put the Guild Wars series at the top of the charts for the second year."

Guild Wars Factions was one of the year's most anticipated releases, and in its first few weeks out of the gate has wowed fans, press, and retail alike."
