UK Games Chart Week 2

Into the 2nd week of the year and here’s a look at the UK gaming chart. There isn’t much change from last weeks. GTA still rules the chart, FIFA15 PS4 makes a jump to the top 5 ensuring that the big 3rd party titles from last year are all selling better than their XboxOne counterpart excluding Assassins Creed Unity that’s still selling well on XboxOne probably due to their bundle.

Driveclub hangs on for another week in the top 10 despite the initial disaster launch, and Destiny for PS4 remains above the XboxOne version suggesting the PS4 marketing campaign for Destiny paid off.

Master Chief collection makes a jump to just outside the top 10 perhaps from word of mouth that the connection issues have died down and people can enjoy the online play now.

Top 10:

5 PS4
5 XB1
