Train2Game students have got used to seeing FIFA 12 from EA Sports at the top of the charts, and it remains there for the fourth consecutive time in a week when two Zimba Fitness titles make the top ten.
It’s the sixth time FIFA 12, which as reported by the Train2Game blog was the UK’s third ever biggest launch when it was released,has taken top spot and it’s certainly not proving easy for any other title to dislodge it.
Just Dance 3 moves up two spots to No.2, with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim also raises two to take No.3 Battlefield 3 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 slip to No.4 and No.5 respectively.
Zumba Fitness remains at No.6, while Zumba Fitness 2 enters the top ten at No.7. As previously reported by The Train2Game Blog, Zumba Fitness dominated the charts last summer.
RAGE moves up one to No.8, and Train2Game students can read our interview with its Creative Director Tim Willits here on The Train2Game Blog.
Assassin’s Creed: Revelations moves up one to No.9, while Need For Speed: The Run drops three to complete the top ten.
Ubisoft’s Kinect title Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012’ has been out since November but makes its top 40 debut at No.12.
The UKIE Gfk Chart-Track All Formats Top 10 for the week ending 14th January 2012 is therefore as follows:
1. FIFA 12 (EA)
2. Just Dance 3 (Ubisoft)

As Train2Game students will know, January tends to be a quiet period for the games industry, and there are no major releases this week.
So Train2Game, what are your thoughts on FIFA’s continued dominance? And what do you make of two Zumba Fitness titles inside the top ten?
