He is standing on top of the world, or at least at the top of the charts. Yes, the PC port of Ubisoft's hit stealth action console game Assassin's Creed found itself at number one on the NPD Group's latest weekly top 10 list, this time for the week ending April 12. Despite some technical issues with the PC port (including word that Ubisoft will soon remove support for its DirectX10.1 graphics modes) it's a good sign that the game can still bring in a PC audience even six months after the release of the console versions.
The rest of the top 10 is mostly repeats from previous weeks with Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath dropping from number one to number eight on the sales list. There are some other shifts among the top 10 but the only other new game besides Assassin's Creed is the stand alone version of Valve's acclaimed (and super-short) puzzle shooter Portal. It managed to squeeze in the list at number 10.
