Electronic Arts Scores Christmas No 1 With FIFA 14

FIFA 14 has scored the Christmas No 1 slot in the UK videogame sales chart.

Electronic Arts' football title beat last week's best seller Call Of Duty: Ghosts in the all-format charts.

It's the first time since 2007 that EA has netted the festive No 1 with the popular footie game, because Activision's Call Of Duty series has dominated the chart in recent years.

Assassins Creed 4, Battlefield 4 and Lego: Marvel Super Heroes took positions three, four and five respectively.

Many people's game of the year, Grand Theft Auto V, was in sixth position.
