Earlier in the month, UKIE reported that Call of Duty: Black Ops was the biggest selling game of 2010. Today, that information hasn't changed, but the firm has finally released the full listings for the all-formats chart as wells as individual platforms.

Black Ops tops all-formats, 360, PS3

The Treyarch shooter reached the top of the all-formats, PS3 and 360 charts, but was nowhere to be seen in the top five of the PC charts.

FIFA 11, Just Dance, Red Dead Redemption and Wii Fit Plus rounded off the top five in the all-formats chart.

Just Dance 1 beat out its sequel and Wii Fit Plus to head up the Wii list; Professor Layton and the Lost Future won in the DS chart; FIFA 11 came out tops in the PSP chart; and Football Manager 2011 held off FM2010, The Sims 3, WoW: Cataclysm and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty in the PC chart.

"2010 was another strong year for the video games industry, with record breaking sales figures from games such as Call of Duty: Black Ops," said UKIE boss Michael Rawlinson.

"2010 also saw casual gaming really take off, particularly on social networking sites and on mobile phones. With more video games than ever before being played, on an ever growing range of games consoles, PCs, mobile phones, mobile devices and internet enabled TVs, the industry has widened beyond all expectations and will continue to expand exponentially in 2011."
