14 DAY TRIAL // The football simulation FIFA 11 from EA Sports has managed to get another full week at the top of the United Kingdom video game market, while Call of Duty: Black Ops, developed by Treyarch and published by Activision, has continued its slow slide down the charts after being the best sold title of last year on the same market.
FIFA 11 seems to be keeping up a better profile than its predecessor did at the same point during last year, showing that big sporting franchises become more important in the gaming world.
Just Dance 2, the casual dancing game from Ubisoft, has managed to jump up to whole places to take second, profiting from the overall slump in sales and the lack of new releases.
Call of Duty: Black Ops is in third place and is eagerly awaiting the launch of the First Strike downloadable content pack, which will include four new multiplayer maps and one based around the zombie mode, to gain back some Steam.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, the racing title created by Criterion and published by Electronic Arts, has also dropped down one place to fourth, followed by Wii Fit Plus from Nintendo, the fitness game clearly profiting from the huge number of New Year's Eve resolution that have to do with losing weight.
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, the open world adventuring game from Ubisoft, has managed to come in sixth place, also down one place week over week.
Gran Turismo 5, from Polyphony Digital and Sony, is in seventh, not budging one place, followed by Fallout: New Vegas, the Obsidian made mix between action and role playing, which climbed one to eight.
The Sims 3 is in ninth while Kinect Sports from Microsoft seems at the end of a good period, bringing up the rear in ten.
Dance Central is out of the top ten.
