UK Charts 10/03/14: South Park Steals Thief’s Glory

It’s nice to see new games getting to number one each week, do you remember the horrible period over Christmas and the start of this year, where one game (usually FIFA or CoD) would continually hold the top spot for weeks at a time? I do, and I didn’t like it.

Anyway, basically South Park’s still quite popular and has taken the top spot from Thief. I haven’t watched it in years, so would be a bit out of the loop, but still think The Stick of Truth looks quite good – Dan scored it 8/10 in our review.

Thief’s sales are down 48%, which puts it to number two in the chart, and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare’s sales are down by 1%, but still manages to jump up from fourth place to third. Pac-Man’s return makes a disappointing debut at number 21.

It’s just a shame South Park is not number two in the charts, could you imagine the jokes?

  1. Am very curious about South Park….. But not curious enough to part with my cash…

    • Hi dizwod, you really should. It’s a wonderfull game,the RPG mechanics work really well and the gameplay is solid plus it’s hilarious. Along with the batman and lego games this is probably one of the best tie-in games ever made, highly recommended

      • I shall have to find some pennies. although theu were going to be used for infamous and watchdogs hmmm.

        I do like my rpgs though

      • I was pleasantly surprised how well it plays as an RPG, graphics are a bit bland but it does follow the cartoon quite faithfully. Some nice (simple) environmental puzzles as well.
        As much as I enjoyed playing Stick of Truth though, I still think Thief is the better game, but I guess it has a more limited appeal.

  2. Only 3 Lego games in the top 20? What is the world coming to?!
