Crytek’s EA published Crysis 3 spends a second week at No.1 despite a 43 per cent drop in sales week on week.

Former No.1, Aliens Colonial Marines, continues its decline with a 55 per cent drop seeing it place at No.7.

A quiet week for games looks to be the perfect set up for Eidos’ well-reviewed Tomb Raider reboot, which hits stores on Tuesday. Expect Lara to return to the top of the chart with the biggest debut of the year so far.
Also coming to stores are 3DS adventure Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirrors of Fate and EA’s SimCity – the latter likely to see its chart position hampered by strong digital sales.
