UK Charts: Sleeping Dogs is UK no 1 for this week, followed by The Sims 3

Guild Wars 2 at no. 6.

Sleeping Dogs has been doing incredibly well in the Europe, especially UK, taking the pole position in the software sales chart for a lot of weeks now. Guild Wars 2 which was at no. 2 last week has dropped to No. 6, which has to be a little disappointing for AreaNet.

It is said that Sleeping Dogs sold approximately 200k units in the UK itself, which is a massive achievement for a new IP, but could have been better.

“Square Enix climb back from No2 to No1 with ‘Sleeping Dogs’, notching up a third week at the Top since launch (-42%). Last week’s new No1, NCSoft’s ‘Guild Wars 2’ (-84%) drops to No6 this week,” reported UKIE.

“The lone new entry this week comes in at No2, EA’s ‘The Sims 3: Supernatural’ which is the 7th expansion pack for The Sims 3. Nintendo remain at No3 with ‘New Super Mario Bros. 2’ for 3DS (-40%), Sega remain at No4 with ‘London 2012: The Official Video Game’ (-41%) and Warner remain at No5 with ‘Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes’ (-35%).”
