UKIE Week 47 2012 UK Video Game Charts

‘Call of Duty: Black Ops II’ holds off Square’s new entry ‘Hitman Absolution’ despite an 81% drop in sales. It’s a successful second week for Activision Blizzard with sales of their previous Call of Duty title ‘Modern Warfare 3’ having dropped by 87% in its second week. In fact, 2nd week sales are up by 15% compared to those posted by MW3 last year. ‘Hitman Absolution’ settles for a respectable No2, outselling the next best ‘Hitman’ launch (Hitman Blood Money in W21 2006) by almost 3 times. There is no change at No3 and No4 as sales of both ‘FIFA 13’ (+2%) and ‘Assassin’s Creed III’ (-0%) remain reasonably static. ‘Halo 4’ (-26%) drops to No5, ahead of newcomer ‘Lego The Lord of the Rings’ from Warners which debuts at No6. Family titles ‘Just Dance 4’ (+39%) and ‘Skylanders Giants’ (+12%) are still proving popular, with Ubisoft’s title a non-mover at No7 and Skylanders slipping to No8 despite a 12% jump in sales. ‘Need for Speed Most Wanted’ (-8%) holds on to a Top 10 position at No9, while after two weeks out of the Top 10 ‘Dishonored’ (+79%) returns at No10 thanks to a retail-wide price promotion. A major retailer sales event propels ‘Udraw Studio’ (+406%) back into the chart at No13. There are new entries further down the chart with ‘Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two’ new at No34, ‘Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse’ at No35 and ‘Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale’ at No38.

neh, you know how a thread like that would go... "UK is xbox land, wait for the other numbers..". if those numbers aren't any better then they blame the reviewers.." its a good game I'm having fun, everyone is missing out..  I bought it and its a 9, I jerk off on it..." after that its Sony advertising: "they should have made TV ads bla bla bla.". after that the potential it has with DLC characters: "just wait until Cloud is included or Crash" and finally they'll just hype up another game and dismiss that this game was hyped..

It couldn't even beat Forza Horizon's 5th week on the chart.  It appears to be bombing very badly in the U.S. as well as it didn't make the Amazon top 100 bestsellers list.  In fact it almost didn't make it into the top 200. It's at 195 which is pretty shocking for a game that released less than a week ago.  Also of note is that Amazon typically favors Playstation 3 games so it may be doing even worse when all the other retailers are factored in.



If all stars doesnt recover next week I will call it a bomba



It is a bomba - 38 = probably less than a 1000 copies sold.
