It’s Monday meaning we get to take a look at this week’s top 20 videogame charts, UK charts that is. From the list we can see Call of Duty Black Ops II maintain it’s position despite reports of a 81% drop in sales, I’m not going to lie that bit of news makes me smile. Hitman Absolution makes it’s debut and is unable to knock off Black Ops II whilst FIFA 13 is a none mover this week.
Lego Lord of the Rings is apparently out, I’m supposed to be someone who knows about video games and even I didn’t know this until I saw the charts. Dishonored manages to creep back into the top 10 which should make fans happy as it’s not exactly been an amazing seller and perhaps deserves to do better. Medal of Honor is still in the top 20, I don’t understand the public’s obsession with these military shooters and probably never will.
Missing from the top 20 is Epic Mickey 2, it actually came in at 34 which is a poor showing considering it’s on three different platforms and carries the Disney brand license. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale also didn’t do so well only managing to show up at 38. I don’t think it has much to do with a game quality issue but rather those Sony mascots are just not as popular as some would think.
That’s your top 20 for this week, join us next week to see my reaction if Medal of Honor is still manages to chart again.
