The New UK video game charts from Gfk Chart-Track are in, and the prefix 'New' is purely in terms of time, at least when it comes to the Top 10.
Crysis 3 remains in the #1 spot despite a 43% drop in week-on-week sales. Last week's #2, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance drops to #3 with 60% sales drop. The rest of the Top 10 is a reshuffle.
