FIFA 15 survived a three-way attack to secure another week as the UK No. 1 game despite a drop of 70 percent in sales. EA's soccer sim shimmied its way past action-RPGs for multiplatforms like Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor as well as the Xbox-only racer Forza Horizon 2 and porta-brawler Super Smash Bros 3DS, placing second, third and fourth, respectively. While the three new games couldn't compete with the UK's love of FIFA (and let's face it, few could) however, they did enough to outplace Bungie shooter Destiny, which dropped from second to fifth in its fourth week of sales.



Minus the PS4 retail version of Minecraft (which UK databod Chart Track denotes as another platform for Minecraft: PlayStation Edition), the other new release on the list was Crimes & Punishments: Sherlock Holmes in 27th. Chart Track does not release sales figures but it did release some platform differences for some of the top-rated games of the week. For instance, the Shadow of Mordor split was 56 percent PS4 and 41% Xbox One, and 3 percent PC (that does not include downloads) In contrast, Forza Horizon 2 had a 73: 27 ratio between Xbox One 360 and Xbox 360.



As ever, the full top ten and more traditional music videos are below the break. Top 10 UK Software Sales (All Formats): week ending October 4
