We love charts here at Player Attack, and one of the highlights of our week is receiving the latest details from UKIE, who send us the 40 best-selling titles in Britain, as announced by the The Association for UK Interactive Entertainment.
It’s taken nearly three years, but Codemasters is back at the top of the charts, with Grid 2 taking out the honours. The original Grid could only manage #2 when it was released five years ago, and the publisher’s last #1 was in Week 38, 2010.
In other news, FIFA 13 is reportedly enjoying a school holiday spike in sales, a lower price point is rewarding Far Cry 3, moving up four places, but last week’s #1, Resident Evil: Revelations has dropped by precisely the same amount.
In disappointing news, EA‘s co-petitive shooter FUSE has made its debut, languishing down the bottom of the charts at #37.
