Three EA games in top ten

It's the perfect start to the new year for Electronic Arts, who will no doubt be chuffed to have three titles in this week's multi-format videogame's chart top ten. Top of that pile is FIFA 08 which has been performing well since its October release.

Following the hectic holiday period comes the slowdown in January, so unsurprisingly there are no major movements in this week's chart , but Chart Track has stated that sales are signiificantly down in the first week of the new year, with Assassin's Creed being the biggest loser (sales down 70%).

Must agree with you there. I've moved over from Pro Evo. I love FIFA online, it's smooth and easy to get a game.
only thing I dont enjoy about playing fifa online - is winning and the other person quitting. If you cant take a beating - DONT PLAY
