Dead Space 3, the mix between action and horror from developer Visceral Games and publisher Electronic Arts, is the bestselling video game for the month of February on the United States market, according to the NPD Group.

The rest of the top ten includes:

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Crysis 3 NBA 2K13 Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Aliens: Colonial Marines Just Dance 4 Far Cry 3 Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time Madden NFL 13

The NPD numbers take into account physical retail sales.

Liam Callahan, an analyst working for the NPD Group, is quoted by VG247 as stating, “Though there was the same number of February launches in the top ten ranking as last February, collectively, February launches performed worse than last year with unit sales down 30%.”

It seems that video game sales are in danger of being overtaken by toys sales created by Skylander Giants the coming Disney Infinity.
