Grand Theft Auto V has retaken the top spot of the chart, becoming the UK’s best selling game of all time in the process. Sales generated during last Tuesday’s PS4/Xbox One launch alone were enough to push it past Call of Duty: Black Ops, Chart-Track reports. Ubisoft also has a reason to be cheerful. Far …
After more delays than we can recall Watch_Dogs finally arrives on the Wii U eShop this Thursday. While the retail version – due out Friday – can be found for around £35 online, the eShop version has been marked up at a hefty £49.99. On top of this there are two additional add-ons – Conspiracy! …
The UK chart has been pretty stagnant lately. Not this week however – there are three new entries, including a new number one, and the top ten has seen an unexpected shuffle. That new number one is The Sims 4, becoming EA’s fourth #1 of the year. It’s also the first PC game to take …
Last week really was a poor one for UK game sales. So poor, in fact, that this week’s UK top 40 sees 2011’s Pokemon White and Pokemon Black resurface at #21 and #22. What are they doing there? Why, they’re reduced to £7.99 at Argos currently. Even with limited stock available they’ve still managed to …
You know it’s a slow time of year for new releases when the only new arrival in the chart is a movie tie-in. That game? Little Orbits’ How to Train Your Dragon 2 at a lowly #34. It’s Watch_Dogs that’s the UK’s number one, knocking Sniper Elite 3 down to #2. This’ll be the 4th …
Last week was uneventful for new releases and as such this week’s UK chart is a dull one. Sniper Elite 3 is the UK’s number one for a second week running while Watch_Dogs remains at #2. FIFA 14 rises up from #6 to #3. Titanfall holds onto #4 and then at #5 it’s Wolfenstien: The …
Watch_Dogs is top dog for a third week running, keeping 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil at bay. With the World Cup now in full swing, EA’s soccer sim rises up from #6 to #2. A price cut could see it take the top spot next week, but we can’t see EA cutting it just yet. …
Even with an 81% drop in sales, Watch_Dogs is the UK’s number one for a second week running. That’s no surprise. What is surprising though is that Mario Kart 8 has managed to remain at #2. At #3 it’s a new entry, and a surprisingly high one at that for Murdered: Soul Suspect. The individual …
Ubisoft’s unveiling of Watch_Dogs brightened an otherwise dull E3. Their futuristic rendition of Chicago impressed many while the protagonist’s ability to hack into just about anything with a computer chip promised true innovation. There was also an intriguing air of mystery surrounding it – this is something that seemingly came out of nowhere, from a …
Ubisoft’s Watch_Dogs is the UK’s new number one, smashing the record for the fastest selling new IP in the process. The previous record holder was 2011’s L.A Noire, if you’re curious. It has had the 17th best launch week in the UK, putting it alongside the likes of GTA, Call of Duty and FIFA. Although …
We can’t muster up enough enthusiasm to check, but we’re pretty sure that May isn’t usually as busy as this for new releases. Two of the biggest games of the year, plus revivals of both Worms and Lemmings? In the words of Harry Hill, “What are the chances, eh?†Releasing on no less than five …
We admit to being incredibly sceptical about Watch_Dogs prior to reviews going live earlier today. Sure, the E3 reveal dazzled us just like it did everyone else, but since then there have been all kinds of murmurs that development wasn’t moving along as swiftly as planned. That six month delay, which came just weeks before …
