Earlier this month the NPD Group announced that The Sims 3 was the best selling retail PC game in the US in 2009. Now the game's publisher Electronic Arts has issued a press release claiming that the latest entry in the people sim series was in fact the number one selling PC game in the entire world last year. EA also claims the game's first expansion pack, The Sims 3 World Adventures, was also on the top 10 lists of best selling PC games in the past year in a number of countries.
While EA didn't mention any specific unit sales numbers in its announcement it did say that The Sims 3's number one sales numbers represent the sixth year in the past decade that a Sims game has been the best selling PC game in a year. In addition, EA says over 100 million pieces of custom content for the game have been downloaded from The Sims 3 Exchange in 2009.
