Assassin's Creed III tops charts

Assassin's Creed III got off to a good start last week, after sneaking past the opposition and taking first place in this week's ChartTrack multi-format sales chart. It's been a good week for Ubisoft, with the Vita-exclusive Assassin's Creed III: Liberation also appearing in the top twenty.

FIFA 13 clung onto the second place in the listings, but the rest of the top five is dominated by new releases.
