Brilliant news! Glad that the usual suspects (FIFA, CoD) got beaten in the charts Smile

Indeed. Good sales for the title will make it more likely that Namco Bandai won't slack localising on the Tales of series or perhaps a sequel if the worldwide reception proves positive enough.

I would hope that the title sold many copies on top of topping the charts (which gets it more attention when you visit a store or a website). DmC sold only a fraction of DMC4's first week sales a few weeks ago despite being Capcom's first UK weekly chart topper since Resident Evil 5 (http://uk.gamespot.com/news/uk-chart-dmc-tops-the-charts-with-only-a-third-of-its-predecessors-sales-6402680).

There is still relatively little competition aside from the evergreens of last year like Call of Duty and FIFA.
