You’d be forgiven for a feeling of déjà vu, looking at the top of the charts. Titanfall’s Xbox 360 release has catapulted it to a dominant position in the UK charts for the past three weeks now, while 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil and FIFA 14 also held 2nd and 4th positions last week. In fact, the only difference in the top five is that Call of Duty: Ghosts has swapped places with LEGO The Hobbit.
Skimming down the list, we’ve got a familiar story, with no big new releases last week. Minecraft and South Park do well for themselves, while there’s the ever-present array of LEGO titles. Down in 15th place, inFamous Second Son is still duking it out with Metal Gear Solid V: Grouns Zeroes, and still holding a slender lead.
So a quiet week without a big new game leads to an unexciting week in the UK charts. Who’d have guessed?

I would be interested to know how many copies of MGS: GZ have been sold so and how much money they have made from it. They could be looking at a huge portion of the development cost of MGSV being made back in sales before the game even comes out!
