Week 3 of the year and the UK game charts are again very similar to last week. We need some new games it would seem as a lot of titles re-enter the top 40 charts this week.
PS4 COD Advance Warfare muscles into number 2 replacing Xbox One’s version of GTAV. DriveClub finally falls from the top 10 games, and Football Manager 2015 makes a huge climb up the charts. one shocker is the re-entry of NintendoLand to the charts at 25. Looks like the WiiU shifted a few units in the week to bring this title back to the top 40.

Another interesting point this week is that the games that re-entered the charts are Wii, WIU, 360, PS3 or PS4 platforms. No XBO re-entries to the chart. Perhaps XBO sales have dipped a bit more than other consoles after holiday bundles and promotions?
