The Sims 3 tops UK PC Charts

After weeks at the top, SimCity has dropped from the top spot in the UK PC retail charts and the Sims 3 moved back up.

The popularity of the Sims is great news for EA who announced The Sims 4 yesterday. The series is (as it often does) dominating the charts top 10, but you have to remember that the games are sold at major supermarkets in the UK, whereas other PC titles are not.

Here’s how it’s looking for week ending 4 May.

1. THE SIMS 3
2. FOOTBALL MANAGER 2013
3. SIMCITY MAXIS
4. THE SIMS 3: UNIVERSITY LIFE
5. THE SIMS 3: SEASONS
6. THE ELDER SCROLLS V: SKYRIM

8. WORLD OF WARCRAFT: MISTS OF PANDARIA
