Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection couldn't remove FIFA 16 from the top of the UK sales summit, but it was popular enough to earn the accolade of 8th biggest PlayStation 4 launch of 2015. The sumptuous remaster slotted in nicely in second on the British best sellers list, with the likes of Destiny: The Taken King and LEGO Dimensions finishing just behind.
Grand Theft Auto V, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and NBA 2K16 rounded out the remainder of the top ten, with newcomer Rock Band 4 squeezing just inside. Sadly, it seems that Transformers: Devastation didn't have the touch with consumers, as it could only manage 21st position at best. Will anything dethrone EA Sports' soccer sim at this point? Place your bets in the comments section below.

what were the other 7 (just wondering as I didnt see it mentioned)
Really not surprised by Uncharteds success tbh a lot of people who ditch ps2 for 360 are ditching Xbox for ps4 and they'll wanna get up to speed with the story before UC4 lands
I'll end up with it but not at full price played the first 2 to death so it doesn't grab me as an immediate purchase
Just wondering, does anyone know if the ps now version of the last of us has the DLC on it? Want to play left behind but I don't want the full trophy list again if it's on ps now I'll just rent it for 2 days and blast it off
@MANTAGTJ001 Doesn't say in the Chart-Track article, but we can make some assumptions: The Witcher 3, Metal Gear Solid V, FIFA 16, Bloodborne... Umm?
@get2sammyb... Batman, MK10, Battlefield Hardline.
Can't believe people STILL buy Fifa(prob the only game they buy each year, snoozer), worse than cod. I picked up transformers, ps3 version as it was €30 cheaper than ps4 version.
Uncharted Collection, I'll pick that up in a year or two for €10, played them all before.
There are a lot of games coming up for me next month on ps4 so I will hold off until the other uncharted comes out and price drops also but have played and completed all before so I can wait. But im glad it sells well as it can only be good for the ps4 right?
@Wesker Good shout, though I don't think Mortal Kombat X did particularly great in the UK. You're bang on with the other two, though. I forgot all about Battlefield Hardline.
I wanted LEGO Dimensions but it's er £85?! :-/ + It would of been nice if Uncharted was Number 1 but it's nearly impossible to knock FIFA off in it's 1st few weeks. Unless your called 'GTA'
God, UK is the WORST market, they buy the same game/genre everytime!
But great news about Uncharted!
F****** fifa :/
@get2sammyb I'm pretty sure mortal kombat is the fastest selling game of the year right behind fifa
FIFA is brilliant this year. I bought unchartered and loving it so far
but Fifa is excellent.
Why bother putting these article's up?? It's not the REAL uk top 10 they don't even take into acount digital sale's and I also bought Fifa (physical copy) because I knew I would trade it in it's exactly the same game it was 3 year's ago (the last time I bought Fifa) except the tackle button has changed to circle from X....everyone I know bar two people buy their game's digital it's not the UK people that suck, it's the people in charge of the UK.
As much as I'm enjoying Transformers : Devastation, I think it's safe to say that; even at a budget price and with the most appealing art style I've ever seen in a Transformers game, a TF game banking on G1 nostalgia just doesn't have the power to sell when all hell's breaking loose and it's right in the eye of the storm.
@readyletsgo I bought Fifa this year, I also bought Unchartered HD, Metal Slug 3 and Disgaea 5 on preorder. This line is wrong the games playable, has every prem ground and loads of modes. Why wouldn't I buy it?
@Frank90 not true I'm sure the North Korean market is in worse shape.
@xMEADx it's not the UK people that suck, it's the people in charge of the UK.
Hahaha how did you manage to fit that in to a digital / retail comment but I agree.

I wonder if it would have got to number 1 had it launched on Tuesday rather than Friday? Maybe even be higher than 8th in the biggest launch list. Either way it's good to see it doing well and I'll never understand why so many people buy the yearly updates of Fifa
Never liked Fifa. Always the same.
