'Black Ops' DLC makes up the three most popular downloads.

The folks over at Game Informer got their hands on a list of the top 10 best selling games on PSN for 2011. While some of the titles are expected, there are a few on there that come as a bit of a surprise.

The best selling game of 2011, not including full PS3 games or Mini titles, was the old go-to 'Tetris.' It's available on practically anything capable of playing games, even crappy old cell phones, but it still sells like crazy. Also topping the list are titles like 'Resident Evil 4,' Back to the Future,' 'Castle Crashers' and 'Limbo.'

PSN's top 10 paid downloads list takes out the stipulation that Mini games aren't included and we see 'Angry Birds' at number 7 - the only game to make the list. The top three are all 'Black Ops' content, as is number six. Interestingly enough, training points for 'MLB 11 The Show' appear in fourth place while training points for 'MLB 10 The Show' take ninth.

Finally Mac users can get their hands on 2010's critically acclaimed hit.

A decade or two back, Mac kept up with and even beat out PCs in the gaming realm. Even the now Microsoft-centric Bungie was Mac exclusive at the time, but those days are over. Mac users have to wait for new titles, if they get them at all.

If you're a gamer that's using a Mac, you'll be happy to know that the critical darling 'Limbo' is finally available on your OS of choice. The game is now available on both Steam and in the Mac App Store at the price of $9.99.
