Black Ops Leads Unchanged Top 6
29/Dec/2010 The penultimate chart of the year remains headed by Activision Blizzard’s ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops’ ( 13%) having claimed 6 weeks out of 7 so far since launch (‘Gran Turismo 5’ claimed one week at the top back in week 47). Entertainment Software sales only climb 5% in units/value over last week which means that in terms of units the market is the biggest this year (but only 442 units up over the ‘Black Ops’ inspired previous biggest week of 2010 back in week 45) and second biggest this year in terms of revenue (behind week 45, some £28m short of that all time record-breaking week). As you would expect there is little change over last week with EA’s ‘FIFA 11’ at No2 ( 27%) and EA’s ‘Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit’ at No3 (-8%). Ubisoft’s ‘Just Dance 2’ remains at No4 ( 4%) and Ubisoft also remain at No5 with ‘Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood’ ( 0%). 3 titles re-enter the Top 10 and they are EA’s ‘The Sims 3’ up 6 places to No7 ( 32%), Microsoft’s ‘Kinect Sports’ up 7 places to No8 ( 25%) and Ubisoft’s ‘Michael Jackson: The Experience’ up 3 places to No9 ( 13%). 2 older titles enter the Top 40 for the first time, the promoted Wii/360/PS3 ‘Monopoly Streets’ from EA at No28 ( 76% / released in week 44, 2010) and Ubisoft’s Wii ‘Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time’ at No29 ( 51% / released in week 47, 2010).
