UK Charts: Guild Wars 2 takes the pole position

Sleeping Dogs at no. 2.

Sleeping Dogs from Square Enix and United Front Games has done incredibly well in the UK holding the top spot for two weeks, but Guild Wars 2 has overthrown it and is the new no. 1 for this week. That was pretty much expected considering it’s quite a good game like our review suggests.

FIFA 12 is out of the top 10 and that is again, understandable due FIFA 13 which will no doubt stay at no. 1 for a long time after it is released. New Super Mario Bros. 2 has taken the third position this week and is doing pretty average for a Mario Games. London 2012 and Lego Batman 2 take the no. 4 and no. 5 spot respectively.

“Guild Wars 2 is also the first PC-only release to reach No1 in the All Formats Chart since ‘Football Manager 2011’ back in November 2010,” reads the UKIE page.
