Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Activision’s justification for churning out crap sequels by the bucketload every year!Call of Duty: World at Warreally wasn’t that spectacular, but thanks to name value and the safety of World War II shooters, Activision is in line for a record breaking run as a reward for its yearly “exploitation” plan. Well done Britain.
This is the game’s fifth week at the top of the UK chart, and justonemore week will see it claim a record for the longest uninterrupted run heading towards Christmas. Activision’s success continues as its cynicism and saturation grows. Meanwhile, the more Electronic Arts tries to be fresh and interesting, the more it fails. A lesson for us all, I think.
Otherwise, the UK charts are the same as always. MoreFIFA, moreNeed for Speed, moreBrain Training. I’m surprised there are people left in England who don’t already own these games, but apparently there are ludicrous amounts. Hit the jump for the whole chart.
