We know about the games that came 1-10 in the October NPDs, but what of the also-rans? Those coming in between 11-20? Are they not also deserving of some time in the sun?

While weâve touched briefly on the performance of two titles not making the top 10, letâs look at the other 9. Yes, nine, not eight, because DJ Heroâs sales were so dismal (itâs best-performing SKU being the 360 version, with 62,000 sold) that it couldnât even make the top 20.

So, without further ado, here are Octoberâs almost-there games.
11. Demonâs Souls (PS3, Atlus)
12. Brutal Legend (360, Electronic Arts)
13. FIFA Soccer 10 (PS3, Electronic Arts)
14. Mario & Luigi: Bowserâs Inside Story (DS, Nintendo)
15. WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw 2010 (360, THQ)
16. Tekken 6 (PS3, Namco Bandai)
17. Borderlands (PS3, Take 2)
18. Madden NFL 10 (360, Electronic Arts)
19. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers Of Sky (DS, Nintendo)
20. Mario Kart Wii / Wheel (Wii, Nintendo)
Well played, Demonâs Souls! And well played FIFA (the 360 version was #10), showing that maybe, just maybe, Americans are coming around.
