UK Charts 14/03/15: GTA V Steals The Top Spot Once Again

The latest charts have been released and Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto V has reclaimed the spot, with a gain of 49% in sales. It’s likely that the release of Heists saw people returning to San Andreas in a big way. Last week’s number one, Dying Light, dropped down to second in the table. One of the biggest drops was experienced by The Order: 1886, which fell from 7th all the way down to 21st.

There were a couple of new entries to the top 10 too, with DMC: Definitive Edition appearing in 5th place, while Sniper Elite 3: Ultimate Edition rounded off the top ten.

  1. I’ve played three of the heists and they’ve been huge fun so far. Bloody difficult too (at times) but it’s just about learning them properly. Still, driving into the prison (for the first time) had us genuinely on edge. Top marks, Rockstar.

  2. That’s quite an achievement for GTA! Whilst I have enjoyed what I’ve played so far of the Heists, they are an absolute pain with randoms – quite annoying when it’s not always easy to get 4 friends together. There always seems to be one idiot who gets himself killed within seconds; then once this is repeated a few times another player quits to find another lobby (understandably). Once the shared “Team Lives” are gone, it would be nice if the others could continue with the current life, at least in the setup missions.

    Matching-making seemed to be another issue. No randoms were joining when I was host. Surely everyone can’t be hosting? I just wanted to play one Heist through as Host, and to ensure I wasn’t dealt some measly 10% cut.

    Anyhow, I cannot wait to play this with reliable people I know, which should avoid both of these issues.
