Best-Selling Video Games of 2002

The top 100 on Amazon UK that year.

A definitive look back at the 2002 Amazon UK chart. Click any cover to find it on Amazon.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City crowns a PS2-saturated chart, with Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and a clutch of Sims expansions filling out the top. The pattern is total PlayStation 2 dominance — the console itself, a DualShock 2 Controller, and movie tie-ins for The Two Towers and Chamber of Secrets across every format. EA's annual machine is visible early, with FIFA Football 2003 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2 both charting. Surprises cluster around dance: the Dancing Stage Euromix and Dance Mat Bundle and a Logic3 Dance Mat both make the list, alongside the Xbox Console launching with Sega GT 2002 and Jet Set Radio Future. The sixth generation in full swing.
