SOUTH PARK IS NEW NO1

10/Mar/2014

‘South Park: The Stick of Truth’ hands Ubisoft their first All Formats No1 of 2014, stealing top spot from Square’s ‘Thief’ (-48%), which has to settle for No2.


53% of South Park sales were on Xbox 360, 41% on PS3 and 6% on PC. It’s the first RPG to debut at No1 since ‘Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch’ back in W5 2013. Along with ‘Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition’ it is the only Top 10 title this week not to have been released on a current-gen format (PS4/Xbox One). All Top 10 titles drop sales this week, but sales of ‘Plants Vs Zombies: Garden Warfare’ only slip by 1%, pushing it from No4 to No3 in its second week of release. Lego is still well represented in the All Formats Top 40 with 5 titles, headed by ‘the Lego Movie Videogame’ (-31%) down 2 places to No4 and ‘Lego Marvel Super Heroes’ (-24%), also down 2 places to No9. ‘FIFA 14’ (-21%) drops 2 places to No5, but hasn’t ever been outside the Top 5 since it was released 24 weeks ago.

‘Call of Duty: Ghosts’ (-23%) is not so lucky, falling outside the Top 5 for the first time, down from No5 to No6. ‘Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition’ (-3%) is up one place to No7, ahead of ‘Battlefield 4’ (-29%) at No8. ‘Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’ (-16%) hasn’t ever fallen outside the Top 10 and manages to hang on this week despite a drop from No9 to No10. The only other new release to make the All Formats Top 40 is Bandai Namco’s ‘Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures’ which debuts at No21.

Who da thunk.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I never bothered with the bottom. Funny that Sonic Generations is ahead of Knack.

Great hold for Rayman and Tomb Raider.

Interesting software. Looks like Xb one ahead of PS4 again. That'll excite some people.

It's funny untill you realise that Colonial Marines probably outsold them both combined

And Disney Infinity is ahead...

Plants vs. Zombies seems to be doing alright on 360. Thems some legs. Good for it, looks kinda fun.

Rayman on PS4 showing some legs as well. And Knack is back!

Generally XB1 software seems to be doing better than PS4 software though (except for Thief). PS4 still not restocked? XB1 price drop done the trick?

Yea it really is interesting. Maybe the ps4 is all out of stock over there. But then again I am not in UK  i would not know.

Great to see both ps4 and xbox one softwares sales doing great though.



Praise the One.

Nope stock have been really dry for the PS4. No stock at amazon,shopto,zavvi and other bigger sellers. And if you find one it's most likely a bundle and not only a PS4 with the the £349 price.

More stock is apparently coming later this month,
