360, PS3 by Christopher Dring


IT WAS a difficult month for games retail. In terms of


units, the market is 40 per cent down compared with June 2011. 2.1m games were sold last month, compared to the 3.5m titles sold a year earlier.


It was a quiet month in terms of releases,


highlighted by the fact that Ghost Recon: Future Solider is No.1 - a game that was released in May. The shooter helped UBISOFT become the No.2 publisher for June.


The biggest new release of the month was snapping at the game’s heels, however. LEGO Batman 2from WARNER BROSwas just 15,000 units behind Ghost Recon, and the hit family game was only on sale for part of the month.


EA was the No.1 publisher, and this was driven by the consistent sales of its big core IP. No publisher had two games in the Top Ten except EA, which had three – FIFA 12, FIFA Streetand Battlefield 3.


There were a number of new games in the Vita charts for June. SONY’s own Resistance Burning Skiesand Gravity Rushtake the No.1 and 2 spots, while KONAMI’s Metal Gear Solid HDreached No.4.
