Weekly PC Sales: MMOs and Star Wars Reign

6
The digital re-release of BioWare's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic was obviously quite popular, just not quite enough to topple the resident MMO powerhouses.

Meanwhile, Street Fighter IV, Braid and the vanilla version of Civilization 4 all rose back up in the download charts thanks to temporary discounts. It'll be interesting to see how D2D's continuing 5-week 50 games for $5 sale will affect the charts moving forward.
