‘Battlefield Hardline’ fends off a strong challenge from Sony’s new PS4 exclusive ‘Bloodborne’ to hold on to the No1 spot for a second week.

‘Battlefield 4’ may have had a slightly better launch week, but its successor has a better second week with sales only dropping by 43%. ‘Bloodborne’ misses out on No1 by 22,500 units, almost making it 4 new IP All Formats No1 debuts in the first quarter of the year. ‘Borderlands: The Handsome Collection’ continues the trend of relaunching old-gen titles as deluxe remastered games on PS4 and Xbox One, entering the chart at No3. ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ (-11%) drops one place to No4 remaining ahead of ‘FIFA 15’ (+0%) which is a non-mover at No5.

Sales of ‘Dying Light’ (-26%) are growing dimmer as it slips 2 places to No6. ‘Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare’ (+43%) and ‘Far Cry 4’ (+233%) both benefit from retailer promotions this week as CoD rises one place to No7 and Far Cry ten places to No8. ‘Minecraft: Xbox Edition’ (+7%) holds on to No9, but the Playstation version (+9%) is not so lucky, dropping out of the Top 10 for the first time since week 7, slipping from No10 to No13. A small price drop gives ‘The Order: 1886’ (+112%) a slight kick, pushing it back into the Top10 at No10. The only other new entry to make the Top 40 this week is ‘Ride’ from PQube and Milestone, debuting at No25 on PS3, PS4 and PC.

Agreed. that thread just didnt have the charts up properly. 

Forza Horizon 2 has some pretty good legs. No doubt it'll outsell the 1st one.

It's weird looking at that list and seeing Lego Marvel is consistently still selling this long after it's release.

Great sales for Borderlands, although I'm a bit surprised XOne version is ahead. I did contribute to the PS4 number by ordering my copy from the UK, at 30 pounds the price was right. Still waiting for the mailman though, they are probably delivering it by bicycle...

It is my very first disc. It will be hilarious for it to arrive only to find out my BluRay drive doesn't work. I've had the console for 15 months and never put a disc into it.

It also seems there will be more discs in my future. Sony's update 2.50 seems to have added a stealthy banhammer for those who buy games over gameshare, I woke up this morning to find three of my games locked, many friends report the same problem. Guess Sony wants us to buy our games...the bastards

Bloooooooooodborne!!!

was hoping bloodborne to be number one to be honest. but at least it topped the individual charts. nice legs for the order!

There are price cuts for Hardline in UK ? It is the case in USA and I wouldn't be suprise if it is also the case in UK but I really have no idea. 

Wouldn't buy it physical, but the deal was good, and as the US Dollar is running wild over the Euro, it was actually cheaper to buy the disc than to share a digital copy.
