A dearth of new releases has resulted in an uneventful UK chart, with the top three positions remaining unchanged. This means Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is no.1 for another week, duly followed by Super Mario Maker 2 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The rest of the top ten has seen a small shuffle. GTA V …
Last week wasn’t exactly one for the ages when it came to new release. Thankfully, Sony’s ‘Day of Play’ sale has given us something to talk about. FIFA 19 is the UK’s no.1 for a second week running, not just due to a price cut but also thanks to discounted PlayStation 4 FIFA 19 console …
Despite FIFA 20 being officially announced over the weekend, it’s FIFA 19 that claims the UK chart top spot this week, all thanks to Sony’s current Days of Play sale. The event sees several first-party games reduced at retailers, along with reductions on select hardware. This includes PS4 bundles with FIFA 19 as a pack-in. …
Last week’s chart was pretty stagnant, or so we thought. This week’s chart – the first of 2019 – is almost on total lockdown, with just a few titles swapping positions here and there. We do have a new no.1, however – FIFA 19 returns to the top of the chart to see 2019 in. …
Our figurative money was on FIFA 19 being the last no.1 of 2018. In the past, EA’s annual soccer sim has always proven popular with those fortunate enough to receive a new console for Christmas. There’s a new bandit in town this year though, with RDR2 topping the final chart of 2018. The Christmas sales …
Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2 has claimed a second consecutive week at no.1, making it this year’s Christmas chart topper. Their last Christmas no.1 was GTA: Vice City, back in 2002. The coveted Christmas no.1 position is usually taken either by FIFA or Call of Duty, both of which can boast of eight yuletide chart …
The Black Friday sales have given the UK chart a shake-up. In short: lots of new consoles were purchased last week, helping popular PS4 pack-in FIFA 19 reclaim no.1. A minor price drop for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 sees it rise from #7 to #2, while Red Dead Redemption 2 – which wasn’t …
It seems the ability to play FIFA 19 early, via either the digital Champions Edition or Ultimate Edition, was a tempting proposition. While the sports sim has managed to take the UK chart top spot, becoming the fastest selling game of 2018 in the process, physical sales were down a colossal 25%. The PS4 version …
Thirty-three new releases make their way to the Switch eShop this week, which we’re pretty sure is a new record. We lost track of grand totals a few months ago, if we’re being honest – between 25-30 new games a week seems to be the norm currently. It’s both astonishing and ridiculous. The big hitters …
Outdated sports games are a common sight in charity shops, but one is found more commonly than others – EA’s FIFA 13. This instalment not only featured some much-needed improvements, resulting in a 90% Metacritic – a franchise all-time high – but it also launched during the peak of that generation’s popularity. We have a …
