It's been roughly one month since <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/aion"><em>Aion</em></a> launched in North America but it's <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/09/17/aion-is-the-single-most-pre-ordered-mmo-this-year/">off to a good start</a>, as indicated by its entry to the <a href="http://www.npd.com/corpServlet?nextpage=corp_welcome.html">NPD Group</a>'s September US PC sales chart at number one. <br /><br /><em>Aion</em> usurped competing titles like <a href="http://www.worldofwarcraft.com"><em>World of Warcraft</em></a> and <a href="http://www.champions-online.com"><em>Champions Online</em></a> in the NPD rankings, and the <em>Aion</em> Collectors Edition took the number five slot on the chart as well. Not bad at all for a game that only launched in the third week of September.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/10/21/aion-tops-npd-group-pc-sales-chart-for-september/">Aion tops NPD Group PC sales chart for September</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:30:00 EST.
