FIFA 14 tops UK charts despite 24 percent year-on-year drop
That gives you an idea of just how big a deal FIFA 14 is, although that's with a 24 percent drop in first week sales compared to last year's FIFA 13. Chart Track wagers the money spent on GTA V last week might be a factor, but we suspect FIFA 14 being a freebie with Xbox One Day One pre-orders in Europe has more to do with it.
Other games aren't stupid enough to take on the FIFA behemoth, especially a week after GTA V came out, so the rest of the charts is pretty quiet.
Top 10 UK Software Sales (All Formats); week ending September 28:
FIFA 14
Grand Theft Auto 5
Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
Pro Evolution Soccer 2014
The Last of Us
Disney Infinity
Splinter Cell: Blacklist
Saints Row 4
Diablo 3
Rayman Legends

Dr-PonyfileTreyarchedDr-J FIFA will always be top in UK, everyone plays it there lol
I don't, I think it sucks harder than call of duty does.
No I play FIFA sometimes but a lot of people on my friends list plays FIFA on a regular basis.
I don't play it. It's c*ap. The same as every other fifa. If I want to play it I will go on Playstation 1 and play it seeing as the game/ graphics haven't changed.

-InsanelyAwesome- It hasn't overtook GTA people its just GTA V has been out a week longer meaning that obviously this week Fifa 14 sold more than GTA V. But in terms of total sales Fifa 14 are well behind.
Yes, because everyone rushes out to get a brand new GTA, FIFA has steady sales though out the year and FIFA is confirmed launched title for Next gen when GTA isnt gonna appear on next .
Plus i dont think EA are looking to rival the sales of game completely out there genre, they'd wanna out perform PES like they have done every single year
