Black Ops Tops Black February for UK Games

February 2011 saw a bad month for UK gaming - at least in terms of sales - with the post-'the Holidays' downturn biting hard.

According to MCV, "23.3% fewer games (3,261,590) sold year-on-year" representing £72.6m worth, a 22.1 per cent downturn compared to February 2010.

The Xbox 360 'won' the month with "Xbox (360) games accounting for 29 per cent of all the titles sold last month. PS3 followed in second place, with Wii coming in third."
