‘FIFA 15’ (-60%) takes a third week at No1 and there are 4 new releases within the Top 10 as we move into peak season.

Highest of these new releases at No2 is Sega’s ‘Alien: Isolation’ currently scaring gamers up and down the country on Microsoft/Sony current/old gen formats plus a box release for PC gamers. Warner’s big new release from last week ‘Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor’ (-55%) drops one place to No3 as does Microsoft’s ‘Forza Horizon 2’ (-54%) also new last week and down 1 place to No4.

The second highest new release is Sony’s PS4 ‘DriveClub’ debuting at No5 with Activision’s 5 week old ‘Destiny’ down 1 place to No6 (-44%). The third new release is a solid start for Activision’s ‘Skylanders Trap Team’ at No7. Right behind at No8 and completing the Top 10 new releases is 2K Sports/Take 2’s ‘NBA 2K15’. The only other new release within the Top 40 just misses out on a Top 10 placing and that is Square-Enix’s ‘Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition’ debuting at No13.

[jonno394]

As mentioned in the other thread, it's rather strange that even though the PR clearly states Trap Team debuts at number 7, it does not actually feature in the top 40 (all formats) chart found here

Can anyone explain this?

 

[2thepoint]

Driveclub did good.

Congrats Evo.

I will be joining the club soon.

 

[Brutalitops]

Sleeping Dogs XB1 just scraping in

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

Good sales for DC seeing as the digital version probably had a large chunk of sales not accounted for here.

Also, I'm in the UK right now and I haven't seen ONE SINGLE ADVERT for the game on TV, newspapers (granted I don't read many) or even on the bigger social media sites like YouTube.

On the other hand, I think for the past few weeks at least, Forza Horizon 2 is the most advertised videogame in the UK right now. I've seen that catchy TV advert countless times. Xbox's marketing budget must be insane.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Man, really thought Alien would top it.

 

[Kysen]

Xbox's marketing budget must be insane.

Doesn't seem to be helping.

 

[bombshell]

Surprisingly good retail performance by DriveClub, when digital is cheaper. Well deserved, game is great.

Now sort those servers out, Evolution!

FIFA deal not paying off for Xbone.

 

[Chocolate & Vanilla]

Good sales for DC seeing as the digital version probably had a large chunk of sales not accounted for here.

I've seen the tv ad for DC a few times. Has Patterson Joseph from Peep Show in it.

I've seen one advert for DC at 1am on TV...

The PR is right. In the individual formats charts by units the Xbox 360 version debuted at number 14, followed by the Wii at number 23.

I guess they will fix it as soon as they realize that Skylanders: Trap Team is missing.

 

[FinalStageBoss]

I'm surprised by the DC spot. Thought it'd be lower since it was cheaper digitally.

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

I've seen the tv ad for DC a few times. Has Patterson Joseph from Peep Show in it.

I've seen one advert for DC at 1am on TV...

Ha really. I'd actually like to see it, will search on YT if anyone has uploaded it.

I really thought Sony didn't even bother to make a TV advert for a 1st party racer for the UK market, which would be pretty unprecedented. Still really poor from them, this game will sell more consoles in the country.

That's rough, outsold by a DS game.

 

[stryke]

So PS4 Watch Dogs might finally drop out next week?

 

[Chocolate & Vanilla]

Ha really. I'd actually like to see it, will search on YT if anyone has uploaded it.

I really thought Sony didn't even bother to make a TV advert for a 1st party racer for the UK market, which would be pretty unprecedented. Still really poor from them, this game will sell more consoles in the country.

Mostly I see it during ad breaks between whatever the wife is watching which seems a little odd to me. Not what I'd call the target audience.

 

[SmokyDave]

Akiba's Trip in at 2 on the Vita chart. Nice.

DC is getting an advert at the moment. It's bundled in with Destiny and Far Cry 4 in a general PS4 advert. I've seen it a lot this weekend.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Jesus christ on a stick @ Sleeping Dogs XBO version compared to PS4 version.

 

[Richie]

Aw, Hyrule Warriors' out...and so is any Wii U game for that matter, Mario Kart aside.

 

[Shahed]

Jesus christ on a stick @ Sleeping Dogs XBO version compared to PS4 version.

With UK charts, that could be like 200 units or something

 

[Imouto]

Akiba's Trip in at 2 on the Vita chart. Nice.

Which one are you looking at? I only see FIFA 15 on the chart.

Seen about the number of DriveClub adverts as i have Forza. Getting sick of seeing both of them.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Doesn't seem to be helping.

Had a better first week hold than most hands this year.

It's been a while since we saw a 54% week on week drop for game.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Sleeping Bomba. I guess that's the last we'll see of that IP

No marketing, crappy port, it's almost as if SE wanted to kill the IP.

 

[Nightengale]

Sleeping Bomba. I guess that's the last we'll see of that IP

Nooooooo ;_;

 

[Radec]

No marketing, crappy port, it's almost as if SE wanted to kill the IP.

Add $60 on that.

 

[Jarod McChicken]

Driveclub ranking #3 despite the upcoming PS+ Edition, being even above Alien Isolation PS4, is excellent news for Evolution Studios

 

[Chocolate & Vanilla]

No marketing, crappy port, it's almost as if SE wanted to kill the IP.

Full priced as well. Sent to die

 

[kadotsu]

No marketing, crappy port, it's almost as if SE wanted to kill the IP.

Nah, it's probably even more pathetic. SE probably bought into the whole mobile only future narrative the tech press was spouting 2 years ago and didn't greenlight enough current gen projects. They are now trying some stop gap shit until the real project come to fruition.

 

[biglittleps]

Anyone can provide estimated sales figure for DC based on last week numbers from FIFA?

 

[stryke]

They are now trying some stop gap shit until the real project come to fruition.

Triad Wars will be the saviour.

[Coulomb_Barrier]

There have been tons of DriveClub adverts on TV.

Seen about the number of DriveClub adverts as i have Forza. Getting sick of seeing both of them.

On TV? Absolutely no way.

I'm quite confident that isn't the case as I've actually been housebound for the last 3 weeks and I've been watching a lot of TV...I've not seen one DC ad. I've seen the FH ad about 20+ times. Around 20-0 is a pretty big slant.

Anyway, maybe you or I have weird watching habits. In any case, I ain't arguing about TV adverts for games

Anyway, maybe you or I have weird watching habits. In any case, I ain't arguing about TV adverts for games

wtf?, dude i have seen tons of DriveClub adverts, why would i lie?.

The adverts show footage of the game and it shows loads of different people playing the game and it has a voice over guy talking a load of generic crap all through the advert.

I rarely watch TV but I've still only seen Forza ads and no DC. Also seen a fair few Evil Within ads too. Of course it boils down to what programs and channels but Forza seems to be getting a better casual push than DC, going off what I've seen anyways.

I'm sure Forza will have better legs than DC too. DC has had a bit of a disastrous launch that may just kill it sooner.

Then again, whenever Sony get around to putting the PS+ version out there, it may gave the full release a second wind if it goes down well. It's what I'm waiting for before I buy.

Don't watch much TV but in Australia I already saw an advert for DC twice last night.

this is very interesting. maybe people are finally sick of remasters (of somehow new-ish games) or maybe because the game didn't have anything new to make it worthy of the port. lets hope this changes thing. publishers put more effort into remasters or the return of the remaster "collection"

No its overpriced considering they did really do much of all and its a crappy port as well from what I understand..

Saw a lot of DC ads here in Germany. Mostly late at night (9pm-1am).
I didnt saw a Horizon 2 ad once.

I don't think people are sick of remasters at all. Sleeping Dogs is hardly a huge franchise game and i didn't even know the game was out, in fact i didn't even know the game was even being made.
The fact that the framerate apparently sucks on both versions shows that this was a quick port and sent out to die.
