This week’s UK charts are now in courtesy of GFK Chart Track. As you probably would have guessed its Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain that has claimed the number one spot on both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Lol so many metal gear spots
I know, right? But it’s probably the best entry in the series.
Anyone wanna form a squad in Splatoon here?
I’d love to, but I don’t own Splatoon. Thanks and good luck!
It IS the best entry in the series! Such an awesome game. Between Splatoon and MGS V I’m having an amazing time gaming
While most of people complained about Ground Zeroes length — I know the main campaign is indeed kind of short –, the mechanics and the playability of GZ showed that something really big was about to come. I really enjoyed GZ, and I’m looking forward to play The Phantom Pain. I already bought it, still waiting the delivery, though.
Nintendo could had used the time and money to make Metroid Prime Hunters 2 for WiiU, it would have been spinoff that Metroid fans would had liked and would also appeal to us older fans too, but no they had to make some stupid watergun tentacle weeaboo bs game, worst part is that its selling and people are supporting the shady practices Nintendo used with that game (locked on content). Nintendo lost their touch, there was a time when StarWars and JamesBond were associated with Nintendo, it was a time when they were legit and people respected them, but not anymore.

Splatoon is a brilliant game. More fun than that crap that’s number one.
K.
OR we can stop being so salty and have fun with both games
Should have started Metriodimmediately after Tropical Freeze was completed.
Retro is obviously working on a NX Metroid as we speak. If Nintendo is smart, they might have it as a release title for the NX, which would drive sales exponentially… Compared to the Wii U launch.
A number of Nintendo fans are still on the fence about supporting the NX (whatever it is) on day-one — myself included. Nintendo deceived us big time saying that the Wii U would offer a core experience and have a massive 3rd party support.
The NX won’t be appealling to me even with a “proper” 3D Mario, Zelda U, F-Zero and Metroid as line up games — which I sincerely believe it is not going to happen, since Nintendo always keep some of its flagship franchises for the console’s mid- and late-lifespans. Although even this rule was broken during the Wii and the Wii U eras… Man, I really don’t know what will be the next Nintendo moves…
Man, when I remember of N64 and CGN days… Those days were brilliant, Nintendo used to outshine its competitors.
ChibiShitForce. I had an anon cry at me about wanting to be part of the hate bandwagon for that pathetic excuse of a Metroid Prime game that should be in the fucking trash where it belongs with all of the other casual shit. Nintendo’s bitch squadron sure does like riding that dick like good little bitches.
And don’t even get me started on Splatoon with it’s shady bullshit tactics to manufacture false replayability. They’ll learn their lesson when Nintendo takes another step forward in that direction & starts making them pay for that shit, essentially becoming EA 3.0. Or is it 5.0 at this point? Then again, with them being sheep, they’ll continue to defend Nintendo’s bullshit.
MGS V is so boring. I’m trading it in for Luigi mansion for the GameCube and cash my way.
lol
haha knowing people like you you prolly never even tried mgs before
I have played all the MGS games. There boring and trash. But hey that’s my opinion. Or is it wrong to have one???
…why would you have played them all if “there” all boring and trash…
Obviously because he’s an idiot… or a masochist. Only idiots play stuff they claim is boring & trash.
Lol common sense would’ve told him to not even buy the second one if he didn’t like the first at all.
Knowing Nintendo Splatoons 2 aint even got started on yet.
But what’s the point of a Splatoon 2 though? Like what could they add in?
Thats why the wii u has droughts is for some dumb reason deveploers want a 36 month break. That is half a console life. So the wii u won’t get sequels.
Hey! Splatoon is the best entry in ITS series!
But technically, by those standards, it’s also the worst..
LOL
Like some awards Nintendo have received lately:
“Best Mario Maker game: Super Mario Maker”
“Best Home Designer game: AC Happy Home Designer”
MGSV is awesome. My first game in the series. I am not very good at stealth and have already been seen like twice, but I’m still getting used to the controls. This might even be my GOTY. But I can’t say for sure yet. Going to be hard to top The Witcher 3…
Eh, I was looking forward to the game, but now it looks boring and generic. But hey that’s just my opinion.
With all of the on-disc locked content no longer locked, I give this game another month or two before it finally falls off below #40 like every other game that created a false sense of replayability by holding back content. But least Nintendo was giving it away for free! Yay! Best thing since the Wii! *rolls eyes*
