Sales-tracking and marketing research group NPD has chimed in with the latest PC software sales in the United States, covering the week of August 3 to August 9, 2008.

As can be glimpsed below, the latest figures put Blizzard's ever-successful MMO World of Warcraft back at the top of the charts, with the Diablo Battle Chest continuing its chart presence while the Warcraft 3 Battle Chest pops up for the first time since early July.

All told, Blizzard-developed titles make up half of the week's best-selling software, with regulars from Maxis, Her Interactive and Infinity Ward representing the remainder.
