Steam's holiday sales for the past couple of weeks meant that their regular weekly sales numbers were heavily skewed by massive temporary price productions for much of their library. With things now setting down from all that activity the weekly top 10 sales list on Steam (based on revenue) is back to normal.

And now that things are back to pre-holiday sales levels, Modern Warfare 2 is also back to its previous position as the number one best selling Steam game with Left 4 Dead 2 following it at the number two spot. Cryptic's upcoming MMO Star Trek Online is making its first appearance in the top 10 with its Digital Deluxe Edition and the regular edition taking the third and fourth spots, respectively.

1. Modern Warfare 2 - Infinity Ward/Activision
2. Left 4 Dead 2 - Valve
3. Star Trek Online Digital Deluxe Edition - Cryptic/Atari
4. Star Trek Online - Cryptic/Atari
5. Grand Theft Auto IV - Rockstar Games
6. Global Agenda - Hi-Rez Studios
7. Borderlands - Gearbox/2K Game
8. Torchlight - Runic Games
9. Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter - Croteam
10. Aion - NCsoft

Idiots! They ruin the game completely by removing dedicated servers and yet the average moron still buys it. In fact you bought it so much it's the best seller! The COD series is dead, you think they will bring back dedicated servers when this is the best selling cod yet?! Not a chance...Posted at 9:14AM on Jan 11th 2010 by Steve

I have no idea who is buying this game. I have about 75 people on my friends list and only 2 play MW2, and they both preordered it.Posted at 9:34AM on Jan 11th 2010 by Kevin

I don't get it either. These publishers killed the PC version and people are still paying $50 for this garbage. Who are these idiots?Posted at 10:51AM on Jan 11th 2010 by Human1

OMG you guys are so right!!

Who cares that it's still pretty darned fun and really the best FPS released at the end of the year.

How dare people spend their hard earned money on something they like! TRAVESTY!!!Posted at 11:08AM on Jan 14th 2010 by Cosmic

@human1 Whats more of a slap in the face is that it's $60, not $50.Posted at 1:43PM on Jan 11th 2010 by david
