Payday 2 tops UK chart, pushes Minecraft into second
The top spot was earned from retail sales alone, despite a simultaneous launch as a download. The success follows the news that Payday 2 became profitable before it was even fully released. These sales were no doubt fueled by a price-tag well below that of most new releases.
Recent reveals for new Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto entries saw those franchises surging back up the charts. Here’s the full breakdown:
1. Payday 2 (505 Games)
2. Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition (Microsoft)
3. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (Activision)
4. FIFA 13 (EA)
5. Animal Crossing: New Leaf (Nintendo)
6. The Last of Us (Sony)
7. The Smurfs 2 (Ubisoft)
8. Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (Warner)
9. Tomb Raider (Square Enix)
10. Grand Theft Auto IV (Rockstar)

I am actually surprised the game is this high on the charts and that Minecraft was only number 1 for only three weeks. It seems like a fun game though, cool concept and it's not crazy expensive.

_BaleMoDOT_Bale I'm surprised black ops 2 is higher than Fifa or The last of us, black ops 2 is terrible IMO.
lol ikr. cod kids vote for the ssdd
Yeah, COD got boring after MW2..
Many people buy call of duty just because it's call of duty, The games have been dropping in quality lately. Hopefully they can innovate a little though

Bubblez As it should Minecraft is horribly overpriced and a boring game
I think the price is reasonable.. if you play with friends Minecraft is a lot of fun in my opinion
