Forums - Sales Discussion - UK game charts: FIFA 14 back on top, Forza in at five

Xbox One’s presence has dominated the UK charts this week, with ten games on Microsoft’s console entering the top 40. FIFA 14 has risen to the top once more.

 

We’ve got review round-ups for all the Xbox One launch titles here.

It follows the sale of over one million Xbox One consoles worldwide within its first 24-hours at market.

Eurogamer reports that Xbox One has outsold Xbox 360′s launch two-to-one, and that it accounted for 80% of all consoles sold in the UK last week.

FIFA 14 has dribbled its way back to the top of the charts with a 328% sales boost and Xbox One as the lead sale format. However, this is due to it being bundled with the ‘Day One’ edition console, so this isn’t exactly raw, individual sales.

This week’s chart goes as follows:

  1. FIFA 14
  2. Call of Duty: Ghosts
  3. Battlefield 4
  4. Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag
  5. Forza Motorsport 5
  6. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes
  7. Dead Rising 3
  8. Grand Theft Auto V
  9. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
  10. Ryse: Son of Rome
  11. Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition
  12. Skylanders Swap Force
  13. Need for Speed Rivals
  14. Just Dance 2014
  15. Disney Infinity
  16. Batman Arkham Origins
  17. WWE 2K14
  18. Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy
  19. Tomb Raider
  20. Pokemon X

XBOX IS NO# ONE

25/Nov/2013

It's been almost exactly 8 years since the launch of Microsoft's Xbox 360 (Week 48-2005) and this week we welcome Microsoft's Xbox One.


In terms of hardware sales, 80% of all home consoles sold this week were Xbox One and this new platform outsold the week 1 for Xbox 360 by a factor of 2. There are 16 launch titles for Xbox One of which 14 actually debut this week (2 titles were released last week). 10 out of these 16 appear in the All Formats Top 40 (exactly the same number of titles appeared in the Top 40 of week 48/05).

EA's 'FIFA 14' (+328%) returns to No1 after a 7 week absence - the lead format is the new Xbox One version, which is the biggest selling Xbox One game thanks of course to the 'Xbox One Day 1 FIFA 14 Edition' (featuring a download token of the game, included here). In fact the PS4 version of 'FIFA 14' also debuts here, a week before the launch of PS4 hardware. Activision Blizzards’ 'Call of Duty: Ghosts' (-16%) drops to No2 after 2 weeks at the top (Xbox One/PS4 versions both out prior to this week). EA's 'Battlefield 4' climbs 2 places to No3 (+134%) thanks to the new Xbox One version and Ubisoft remain at No4 with 'Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag' (+123%) with Xbox One and PS4 versions both out this week. In terms of Xbox One exclusives Microsoft's 'Forza Motorsport 5' debuts at No5 as the largest of these and also featured as a Hardware/Software Day 1 Edition.

Second in the list of Xbox One exclusives at No7 is Microsoft/Capcom's 'Dead Rising 3', with Nintendo taking the next biggest new release at No9 with 3DS 'The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds'. The third biggest Xbox One exclusive is right behind at No10 - Microsoft's 'Ryse: Son of Rome'.

Is around 140K

Record holder is psp with 185k and PS3 with 165k

The Wii U has lifetime sales of 200K and probably will be passed by Xbox one and PS4 next week. (FW sales were 40K).



Updated third post with the charts.

Need for Speed did terribly.

Interesting that they included download cards for the Xbox version of FIFA 14. I wonder what VGC will do with that. We included download cards for Wii Party U in Japan as well.

"I've Underestimated the Horse Power from Mario Kart 8, I'll Never Doubt the WiiU's Engine Again"

"vita needs more games, but we won't buy them"



must-have-list for platforms i don't own yet:

WiiU: Donkey Kong

XBone: Dead Rising 3, Ryse

really?  but never did it for halo?  how odd.


There's been some incredibly lazy tracking lately.  CoD: Ghosts charted for XB1 last week and PS4 the week before, yet we don't have sales for either of them in those weeks.

Regarding Wii Party U, we work out Japanese sales by adding Media Create and Famitsu together and dividing by two (or thereabouts).  This causes problems where one tracker includes download cards (Famitsu) and the other doesn't (Media Create).  Especially when a digial copy of the game is bundled with a console for the week.

I'm hoping we'll get some clarification soon on how the site is going to handle situations like this, because right now things aren't working, imo.
