PlayStation Officially Turns 30 on the Best Selling Games-from All-Time List

Notably, the Call of Duty franchise's entries fill almost half of the positions on the all-time top list. The highest-placed internal exclusive from Sony is Marvel's Spider-Man, which stands 11th and 6th in terms of revenue earned and number of copies sold, respectively.
