UK Charts - Gears of War 3 Destroys Competition (GodisaGeek.com)

"Nobody saw this coming, right? Ten out of ten scoring Gears of War 3 has entered the UK Charts in the number one position, with F1 2011 backing it up in second place.

Dead Island stays in the top five, placing third, whilst Zumba Fitness is sneaking back up the charts and has climbed from sixth to fourth."

Gran Turismo 5 still holding on.. Nice.

"4 ZUMBA FITNESS" ... Not so nice. Come on people, stop being ridiculous.

GodisaGeek4599d ago

Haha, that made me laugh!

It's interesting, in the UK the charts are done so differently. Would be interesting to see "Dead Island (Xbox 360) and "Dead Island (PS3)" in the charts seperately, thus giving platform exclusives a chance, and showing where the split in purchase lies.

Here you go, individual charts. Comes out every week.

Dead Island PS3 resisting Resistance 3 yet again

Number_134599d ago

GT5 did just recieve a budget price cut a week or 2 ago so a spike in sales is to be expected

Legion4599d ago

More like a fart in sales. It is fading away again to drop out next week more then likely. But this is UK charts... what can you say...? They like their Zumba and F1 racing games.

Unaffected4599d ago

amazing what price drop can do

humbleopinion4599d ago (Edited 4599d ago )

Assassins Creed Brotherhood and COD Black Ops are also holding on. What was your reason of singling out GT5 for that matter?

Calm Down Sunshine4599d ago

Reason no.1 - I like the game.

Reason no.2 - It's reassuring to see that a quality exclusive title isn't being completely overlooked by the mainstream gun-monkeys, and is still having healthy sales.

What's with the disagrees?
Or do you people enjoy seeing Zumba Fitness trumping Deus Ex?

im sure those who care about sales will sleep better tonight knowing this, and their lives will now be complete.

Translation: The exclusive for the consolev I love is not on top so this week I don't like sales charts

Bam there it is!! In a sales article, talking about sales and how much more sales a certain manufacturer's console should be listed as

TBM4599d ago (Edited 4599d ago )

No number 13 i don't care what games I've bought sold. I own all 3 consoles, and if you don't believe me check out the gamer tags

360-Zero Cool 108
PS3- Aceman108

i don't spend my time as a gamer worrying about which game sold what as long as i can the games Im interested in.

So this past week me and my brother is having a blast playing through Resistance 3, and when he's done with Gears 3 I'll borrow it from him so i can finish the so-so story. I've never had a problem with Gears gameplay as its always been very good. So why would i care about sales again?

And i made that comment because if you're going to show numbers at least show correct figures, but overall i don't care about sales as i don't see a dime from them.

Bought Gears of war 3 yesterday, game is hot. If people want to buy Zumba fitness let em, I know lots of girls doing Zumba fitness dance classes.

You like porn, they like Zumba. Live and let live.

Ocean4599d ago

Nice to see Gears on top...better than those fitness games.....will be interesting to see how this game fairs against the upcoming releases of Arkham City, Battlefield 3 and MW3 over the next month or so

XabiDaChosenOne4599d ago

Resistance 3 is still in the top ten? But I thought it was doing horrible?

I currently play Gears 3 often, especially after the 60 FPS Boost. Gears of War is my favorite gaming franchise, and the Locusts are the coolest faction in history. Gears Judgment will always be a disgrace for not having the Locust in VS multiplayer.

AuraAbjure313d ago (Edited 313d ago )

GoW 3 and Judgement were the last installments before the series went woke and soulless. I'm level 50 in GoW 3 and LOVE it's multiplayer to death. It's just so crispy.

Dead Island 2 devs believe a Dead Island remake would be a “mistake”

We might be in the age of remasters, but it doesn't look like the Dead Island 2 devs believe remaking the original game is the right move for the series.

but remakes require far less effort for these companies and they can still charge $70 for them!

Feel like everyone makes fun of Skyrim re-releasing like 18 times yet applaud these remasters elsewhere. Would much prefer NEW games

CrimsonWing69410d ago

Making sequels really is the way to go. Otherwise we'll be stuck playing only the first entry, forever!!!
