FIFA 13 claims 4th No.1; Skylanders Giants debuts in 2nd

EA’s powerhouse FIFA franchise remains No.1 in the UKIE GfK Chart-Track All Formats UK charts for a fourth week.

Its strongest contender this week was Activision’s debutant Skylanders Giants, which debuts in second. The toy brand smashes the week one sales of its predecessor Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure which itself managed only 16th when it first arrived a year ago.

Joining Dishonored at No.3, Bethesda has a second Top Ten title this week – Doom 3: BFG Edition, which enters the listings in fifth.

Last week’s other big new release, Activision’s 007 Legends, can’t quite make the Top Ten itself, claiming 12th.
