UK Software Chart: FIFA 12 fends off RAGE for the week of October 8th

FIFA 12 has once again cemented its place at the top of Chart Track’s UK Software Sales listing after its dominant showing last week, except at the expense of a few new games releases.

Despite a sales drop of 68%, FIFA 12 topped the chart ahead of fresh new games RAGE (at No. 2) and Dark Souls (and No. 3) – both fantastic positions in the face of the mighty FIFA series.

Gears of War 3 (sales down 65%) steps down two places to No. 4 thanks to these new entries… and the next four titles on the chart drop by the same margin, with F1 2011, Zumba Fitness, Dead Island and Deus Ex: Human Revolution each making way for RAGE and Dark Souls.

LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean (sales down 2%) is a non-mover at No. 9 and Resistance 3 jumps back into the Top Ten at No. 10, up from No. 13 last week as sales for the game sit flat.

wow look at all the sweet games, my friend just bought Rage now at canal walk, so sad i could not. whats even more sad, i was with him when he bought it mmmmmm :'/ i need more icecream lol.

Oliver

Ice-cream won't make the pain go away, Bronwin. ;)

Try to sneak in a few play sessions with your friend to see if you like it - El33tonline's review will be up this week, also.

Well of course FIFA12 was going to take top spot it really has improved alot this year and how Zumba fitness is at number 6 is shocking lol

Oliver

It's still impressive that Zumba Fitness is duking it out with other heavy-hitting games.

FIFA 12 is probably going to keep that chart position for a few weeks... well, Batman: Arkham City is out next week, so maybe there'll be a bit of a gap in dominance... ;)

Lisa

The Batman is out next week already? Faints

Oliver

Oh, sorry... The Batman!

The only reason why RAGE is not on top is because i don't have a copy yet. But i'll give it top FIFA12 this time. But i think when Batman or Battlefield 3 comes out it will be a different picture.
