UK Video Game Chart: FIFA stays top

NewsPosted 12/01/2009 - 4:22pm GMT

Almost all titles in the Top 40 see sales drop by more than 50%.

Chart Track reports that FIFA 09 has managed to hold on to the UK All Formats All Prices video game chart, although its lead over Call of Duty: World at War was only 400 units.

EA's Need for Speed: Undercover is a non-mover at No.3, Wii Fit is up to No.4 and Wii Play climbs one place to No.5.

Almost all the titles in the Top 40 had sales more than half over last week, with the stand out exception being Wii Fit, which saw only a 1 per cent drop - enough to see the game climb 16 places.

Next week you should look out for a new entry from Lord of the Rings: Conquest, while the PC release of Mirror's Edge could help the title nudge its way closer to the Top 10.

Some surprising places there: Quantam of Solace in the top 10? Gears 2 at no. 15 already? And I thought no-one was buying Need for Speed Undercover: being at third is pretty good.

Kind of depressing to not see any PS3 exclusives up there. Does anyone else remember the time when Sony's marketing was really good?
