Tetris Beats Tiger to November No.1
Old favourite still going strong as it outsells every other mobile game
It’s an oldie but a goodie atop the November mobile phone game chart for November 2005, with Tetris doing the business better than any other title that month. So says videogame industry body ELSPA, who compiles the monthly Java download charts based on sales from O2, Orange, Vodafone, T-Mobile and 3. The classic game, which first came to prominence when it was bundled with Nintendo’s original Game Boy, even managed to do what few others have: it kept Tiger Woods at number 2.
The full top-ten looks like this:
1. Tetris (Jamdat) 2. EA Sports Tiger Woods PGA Tour GOLF 2005 (iPlay) 3. Doom RPG (Jamdat) 4. Pacman (Namco) 5. Block Breaker Deluxe (Gameloft) 6. 3D Pool (iPlay) 7. Monopoly (iFone) 8. EA Sports FIFA Football 2005 MIE (iPlay) 9. The Weakest Link (iPlay) 10. Midnight Bowling (Gameloft)
