The Unfinished Swan Nabs Top Spot for January’s PSN Top Seller List

Sony has announced the first month of 2013's top-sellers on the PSN and The Unfinished Swan manages to nab the top spot!

Developed by Giant Sparrow, The Unfinished Swan is a first-person painting game where you play as "Monroe, a 10-year-old orphan, you'll follow a swan that's stepped out of an unfinished painting and wandered off into a surreal, storybook-inspired kingdom. Each chapter brings surprises, new ways to explore the world, a host of bizarre (and sometimes dangerous) creatures, and encounters with the eccentric king who built this empire. "

Rounding out the top 20 are games such as Factor 5's Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, Tokyo Jungle and Ubisoft's surprisingly excellent shooter, Far Cry 3.

Here's the complete list:

1. The Unfinished Swan

2. LittleBigPlanet Karting

3. Earthworm Jim HD

4. Journey

5. Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy

6. Dungeon Hunter: Alliance

7. TOKYO JUNGLE

8. Machinarium

9. Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

10. Ratchet & Clank

11. The House of the Dead: OVERKILL Extended Cut

12. Mass Effect

13. Warp

14. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

15. NiGHTS into dreams…

16. Modern Combat: Domination

17. Jet Set Radio

18. Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds Complete Collection

19. Far Cry 3

20. Grand Theft Auto IV

For the top 5 PS add-ons, it's no surprise that Treyarch's Black Ops 2 Season Pass is sitting atop the mountain, while Borderlands 2's Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt is at second place.

To be honest, I'm surprised that The Unfinished Swan , LittleBigPlanet Karting and the other games managed to beat the usual shooters. Could it be that gamers are getting tired of shooting everything that moves or this is just an anomaly? For everyone's sake, I'm hoping it's the former.
