There are absolutely no upsets in the UK Sales Charts this week, as the top five consists of five very familiar franchises. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare held onto the number one spot, but was battled all of the way by Grand Theft Auto V. Elsewhere, FIFA 15 finished in third, ahead of Ubisoft blockbusters Assassin's Creed Unity and Far Cry 4.
Discounting helped The Crew to hold onto its position in sixth, while bundles pushed DriveClub all the way back up into seventh. It wasn't the only Sony exclusive to hit the top 40 either, as LittleBigPlanet 3 and The Last of Us Remastered both occupied the 13th and 35th spots respectively. Minecraft and LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham rounded out the top ten.
Don't expect too many changes to this list over the course of the coming weeks, as the industry is heading into a post-Christmas hibernation right now. Things will wake up again towards the end of January with Dying Light, but until then, you may want to take a rest yourself – or consider clearing out that increasingly enormous backlog of yours.

I'm happy with the quiet time...I have Farcry 4 and Dragon Age: Inquisition to get started on as well as smaller titles and games I plan on replaying like Skyrim and Dishonoured to play the DLC I've not tried yet.
I still need to get far cry 4 and dragon age so I have plenty to do until the next round of big games. Ac unity and gta v are now done, so onto one of the above. Which one should I start with though? That's the question!
Sigh
Getting a bit tired of these predictable patterns. Not that there's anything wrong with CoD/FIFA, but some people really don't play anything else! It's a shame considering the gems that are out there.
I've been giving destiny the cold shoulder and playing Velocity 2X and Valiant Hearts, which have both been far more engrossing than that grind fest.
Also tired of CoD:AW after campaign and a few rounds of Exo. Meanwhile, the 17 trillionth game of Real Madrid v Barcelona was played in FIFA "this year edition".
@seeafish personally I can understand the fifa update yearly. Football is a massive past time for millions if people and fifa does it best on console. Cod though is now just plain boring for me.
