UK Videogame Charts: FIFA 14 vs GTA V
Grand Theft Auto V takes big sales drop and STILL performs well
FIFA 14 has knocked Grand Theft Auto V from the top spot of the UK Videogames charts, despite the latter having the biggest ever game launch in the UK.
FIFA 14 is down on the performance of FIFA 13 by about 24% in volume, though. Chart-Track points to all the cash handed over for GTA V last week and the impending launch of next-gen versions of FIFA 14 as possible contributing factors.
GTA V took an 83% drop in sales as it fell to Number 2. Chart-Track points out, however, that "even with such a drop this week 2 number is equivalent to being the 18th biggest week if ranked against week 1 sales of any other games ever released."
Here's the Top 10 in full:
1. FIFA 14 - EA
2. Grand Theft Auto V - Rockstar
3. Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition - Microsoft
4. PES 2014 - Konami
5. The Last of Us - Sony
6. Disney Infinity - Disney
7. Splinter Cell: Blacklist - Ubisoft
8. Saints Row IV - Deep Silver
9. Diablo III - Blizzard
10. Rayman Legends - Ubisoft
