Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is the UK’s All Formats All Prices Christmas No.1

video game for 2012, ChartTrack has announced.

Black Ops 2 becomes the first title of 2012 to hold the No.1 spot for six consecutive

weeks.

The outside bet for No.1 was Far Cry 3 after retailers began to heavily discount

Ubisoft’s open-world shooter midweek, but the resulting 86 per cent rise in sales

wasn’t good enough with the title having to settle for second place.

Square Enix’s Hitman: Absolution placed at No.3, followed by FIFA 13 at No.4 and Just

Dance 4 at No.5.

Happy Christmas and we’ll see you all in the New Year.
