Tetris, Black Ops DLC lead all PlayStation Store purchases in 2011

For over 20 years, Tetris has captivated the world. And in 2011, it sank its tetrahedronal teeth into PS3 gamers all over again as the vintage puzzler managed to outsell every other PSN game on the PlayStation Store. Sing it with me!

Doo, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do, dododo.

The data comes from a Game Informer report listing the ten best-selling PSN games for 2011. Other top ten contenders include the Resident Evil 4 HD remake, the InFamous 2 standalone expansion InFamous: Festival of Blood, and Telltale’s Back to the Future adaptation.

You can find the full list, as well as a look at the bestselling DLC add-ons, after the break.

Bestselling PSN Games of 2011
1. Tetris
2. Resident Evil 4
3. InFamous: Festival of Blood
4. Back to the Future

7. Limbo
8. Battlefield 1943
9. Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection
10. Magic: The Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012

The DLC add-on list was dominated by one name, Call of Duty: Black Ops, and I imagine the same will hold true in 2011 with the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 add-ons.
