According to USA DAILY, The FIFA franchise continues to sizzle in the UK charts this week. Despite the strong debut of its closest rival, Pro Evolution Soccer 2011, FIFA 11 managed to defend the goal to secure the number one position. This is the first time a PES title has not debuted at the top of the charts since the series began in 2001.
Capcom’s shooter, Dead Rising 2, remained at number three while last week’s runner up, Codemasters’ F1 2010, has slipped down to number four. Rounding off the top five is Bungie’s Halo: Reach followed by a pair of new entries, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow at number six and Namco Bandai’s Enslaved: Odyssey to the West.
Here’s the top ten all-platforms sales charts for the week ending October 9:
1. FIFA 11 (Electronic Arts)
2. Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 (Konami)
3. Dead Rising 2 (Capcom)
4. F1 2010 (Codemasters)

FIFA 11 sells 821k copies over weekend and makes £28 million in UK
EA’s FIFA 11 has become the UK’s third biggest first week selling game ever, coming behind Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Grand Theft Auto IV.
The footy sim managed to shift 0.82 million copies in its opening weekend on sale in the UK, which amounts to a cool £28.93 million for EA.
This makes FIFA 11 the biggest selling sports title and will go a long way to reasserting the game’s place before the launch this week of Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 (available for pre-order); which despite its more unofficial status, is often determined the better game by fans.
According to the Guardian, the Xbox 360 version of the game sold the most (with 50% of total sales) with the PS3 close by with 47%. 1% each went to the Wii version and PSP version.
