    Surprised to see a Madden game in there tbh, its not a sport that has any real popularity in the UK, i don't think its on TV at all, as opposed to Football, Cricket and Rugby, although NFL is a bit like Rugby except with a lot of padding, now, if it had rules like in Bloodbowl, that might make it a bit more popular :p

    I just did a search for English American football teams and was surprised to see that there's quite a few.

    I actually used to play it at school at lunch sometimes. Liked how there are hardly any rules to tackling. =)

    Surprising, after looking at the wiki it seems there even some womens teams!

    Is that why the NFL hosts a game in London every year now?

    And every year the NFL owners discuss allowing London an expansion team?


    I thoroughly enjoyed watching olympic Rubgy. Those guys are some of the baddest dudes I've ever seen. To no fault of their own, I just find the rugby gameplay a bit more simplistic than in American football.

    American football, to me, affords more complexity on both offense and defense. Between every single play coaches get the opportunity to make adjustments and evolve the competition. Roles seem more defined and unique.

    There's just something about it all that comes together in a way that is remarkable. And to me it is far more enjoyable watching collegiate level American football than professional.

    Its all about the Lingerie Football League!

    Seriously though, I'm also surprised to see Madden in the UK charts. I'm from the UK and never met anyone who's played it, but then I used to play a lot of rugby so we don't have much respect for american footballers. I have a few friends who get together to watch the superbowl on pay-per-view, but thats usually as far as it goes. 


    Rest of the games, yeh, all makes sense. I'm a bit surprised that F1 2016 is so high, but then I guess Lewis Hamilton has kinda kept this country's focus on F1 for a few years now. Glad to see Mankind Divided on top, I shall be getting it soon I think :)

    FIFA is one of the best sellers in US yet Football (Soccer) is hardly popular over there, so I guess the same can happen with NFL over here.
    American Football is well known in Europe because of the movies even though we don't get it I guess it's a good sport to play in form of videogame....there are no annoying interruptions every 2 minutes like the real thing.

    gta v is still among top 10, wow that game is among top games for years, rock star north is making massive amount of money, i hope they spend it on next gta, make it even bigger and better.

    These top games are just retail though, so the Madden games and GTA make sense. I wish sites would provide digital sales as well, but that never seems to be an option. At least it isn't like the US lists where The Sims 3 and 4 are on the top of everything because that's two of the three games that are sold for pc in retail.

    The way the rules are going in the NFL, it'll be 'touch' football before the decades out.
