Far Cry 3 tops the charts

Steam download chart: Far Cry 3 shoots to the top

Far Cry 3 makes it to the top of the Steam charts, beating off some fierce competition.

CS: GO has a 50 per cent discount and popular titles Portal 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 currently both have a massive 75 per cent off on the Steam store, but all these impressive sales could not beat Far Cry 3 to the top spot.

The open-world FPS has crawled up to first place from its ninth position last week, despite being one of only a few titles in the charts without any money off.

Released on November 29th, Far Cry 3 is developed by Ubisoft and is set on a mysterious island.

Steam top ten as of Monday 10th December:

1. Far Cry 3
2. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
3. Left 4 Dead 2
4. Borderlands 2
5. FTL: Faster Than Light
6. Call of Duty: Black Ops II
7. Don’t Starve
8. Portal 2
9. Assassin’s Creed II
10. ARMA II: Combined Operations
