Amazon is 15 today, and to mark the occasion the online retailer has released some stats that show which games they've sold the most copies of in that time. It's not surprising to see that the two franchises that dominate the charts are Call of Duty and FIFA, but it's also nice to see the inclusion of Skyrim in the top ten.

1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
2. Call of Duty: Black Ops
3. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
4. Grand Theft Auto V
5. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2
6. FIFA 10
7. FIFA 13
8. FIFA 12
9. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
10. Zumba Fitness

Given time, Grand Theft Auto V may well go on to sell more than the Call of Duty titles that sit above it, and it's also worth noting that GTAV is also the fastest selling video game of all time (both on Amazon, and everywhere else).

Ketu Patel, Video Games & Software Category Leader at Amazon.co.uk, said: "Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto and FIFA are three of the largest entertainment franchises in the world, so it's no surprise to see them dominating the top ten best-selling games chart. The success of Skyrim suggests that there is a real appetite for epic fantasy games, whilst Zumba Fitness's appearance in tenth place shows just how big Nintendo Wii's fanbase is in the UK."
