Despite Ellen Page’s claims and criticisms about its depressing nature, The Last of Us still one of the best games of the year. It’s also turning into a strong commercial success for Naughty Dog, as it maintains its number one spot in the UK, according to the latest UKIE sales figures courtesy of GFK Chart-Track.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf for the Nintendo 3DS also maintained its position at second, debuting in the same week as The Last of Us. FIFA 13 holds on at number 3 while Tomb Raider comes in at number 4. A surprising entry is Max Payne 3 at number 5, especially considering that it released in the UK more than a year ago.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Far Cry 3, Injustice, Assassin’s Creed III and GRID 2 make up the rest of the top 10 for this week.

Check out our review of The Last of Us here to see what makes it so uncanny (and awesome).
