Each week, gamers around the world log onto digital distribution platform Steam, to get their latest gaming fix, and every week, playerattack lets you know which games were the most popular.

It’s quickly apparent that all the crazy holiday sales have had some effect on the charts – but perhaps not as much as you’d expect. After all the massive discounts, the indie games, the titles selling out… the number one game, with a triumphant return, is one that was full price for the whole time.

Who else made it into the Steam Charts ending January 3rd, 2010?

	#1 – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 The most-anticipated game of the year and the sequel to the best-selling first-person action game of all time, Modern Warfare 2 continues the gripping and heart-racing action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse.
#2 – Crysis Maximum Edition	#3 – Eidos Collector Pack	#4 – Sid Meier’s Civilization IV: The Complete Edition
#5 – Mass Effect	#6 – BioShock	#7 – Killing Floor
#8 – Torchlight	#9 – The Orange Box	#10 – Left 4 Dead
