UK Charts: Saints Row 4 Continues To Dominate
Saints Row 5 has managed to once again fight off the competition to maintain its position at the top of the UK games chart. The title has been well-received widely by gamers and critics alike, and a recent price cut at several retailers must have helped the title hold onto its lead over new releases.
The PS3 re-mastering of Kingdom Hearts has managed to claim the second spot, in what was a somewhat quiet week in terms of new releases – probably in anticipation of the major bombshell release of Grand Theft Auto V, which is bound to be one of the biggest titles of the year – if not the biggest. Grand Theft Auto IV has even managed to re-enter the top twenty as gamers prepare for the latest game in the series.

If I'm not playing on a good Adventure Game - still longing for the long-past Golden Age of the genre, when Lucasarts and Sierra ruled supreme - you might find me searching for a local arcade, in the hopes that it still houses titles such as Sunset Riders or WindJammers.
