Game rental service GameFly has shared Top 10 lists for each of the platforms it currently supports, from the Xbox 360 all the way down to the Gameboy Advance. “The weekly GameFly Top 10 Most Popular is the best source of online video game rental and purchase data,” GameFly told GamesBeat.
The weekly lists are compiled from the rental queue data, which is why Far Cry 3 (releasing next month) appears on some of the lists. The PC list is taken from actual digital game sales on the site. So, what were the hottest games (out of over 8,000 total in the GameFly library) for the all-important Thanksgiving holiday week?
