Once again Minecraft finds itself atop the UK multi-format sales chart, for a third consecutive week. A resurgent FIFA 13 takes its place in second, and Ubisoft's The Smurfs 2 makes up the top three.

Namco Bandai's Tales of Xillia demonstrates there's appetite for JRPGs, and debuted in fourth ahead of last week's second and third placed games, Animal Crossing: New Leaf and The Last of Us (which, incidentally, has dropped out of the top five for the first time since it was released).

Elsewhere there's not too much to report. Saints Row: The Third brings its Full Package to the top twenty in the run up to the launch of the sequel, but aside from that the chart remains similar to how it looked this time last week. However, with the flood gates set to open in the coming weeks, expect some big titles to stir things up over the next couple of months.

REVIEW. Written by Jesper Karlsson | GR Sweden

"I would like to compare Minecraft to my favourite TV show of all times - Seinfeld. It's a game about nothing."
