FIFA 14 (-23%) comfortably holds on to No1 in the All Formats Chart, making it a total of 8 weeks at the top. Its the largest number of weeks at No1 since Zumba Fitness made it to 10 weeks back in W33 2011. Another quiet week means there is also no change at Nos 2, 3 and 4 with Call of Duty: Ghosts (-39%), Battlefield 4 (-26%) and Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag (-31%) all non-movers. Lego Marvel Super Heroes (-12%) climbs one place to No5, ahead of Killzone: Shadow Fall (-6%) which jumps two places to No6. The rest of the Top 10 shuffles amongst itself with Need for Speed: Rivals (-28%) stuck at No7, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition (-7%) up one place to No8, Grand Theft Auto V (-56%) down four places to No9 and the extremely budget friendly Aliens: Colonial Marines (-10%) not budging from No10. Mario Party: Island Tour on 3DS is the first Top 40 new entry of the year, debuting at No18.

From Pixel Apocalypse... "On this episode of the Pixel Apocalypse Podcast the gang returns from a long winter break to jump back into video game land. Joe Anello scored a lot of Christmas gaming booty and details his adventures with Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5, Playstation Allstars, and Aliens: Colonial Marines. Nathan has spent the bulk of his time playing Dont Starve, Battlefield 4, and Alan Wake. On the news front, apparently its not quite so impossible to make SimCity offline. CES shed some light on the Steam Box, and we are still befuddled. Peter Mayhew released a ton of behind the scenes picks from his time filming the original Star Wars trilogy, and unwittingly outs himself as a creeper."
