It’s no surprise that God of War 3 was the best selling PS3 game of 2010.  The game was a masterpiece that included all that and then some when it comes to the hack and slash genre.  Larger than life enemies coupled with crisp graphics and excellent controls made God of War 3 our favorite PlayStation 3 title of 2010.  Data recently compiled by Gamasutra shows that God of War 3 was indeed the best selling PlayStation exclusive on the console.

There are several titles on the list from franchises commonly associated with Sony’s systems: God of War 3, Final Fantasy XIII, and Gran Turismo 5. Since we last looked at sales of Final Fantasy XIII back in May, it appears to have passed the 1 million unit mark.  At least one new and notable Sony-exclusive title, Heavy Rain, did not make this top 10.

Outpaced on it’s own console by the likes of Call of Duty: Black Ops and Madden NFL 11 God of War 3 kept good company indeed.  WIth this kind of success it’s no wonder that the rumors have been flying about a possible God of War 4 in the works.
