With the film now out, Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince takes the top of the chart. I saw it last night and was mildly disappointed. Daniel Radcliffe and co. give their best performances yet, but there’s very few new characters or locations – just the same old backdrops and now over familiar faces – and it’s also the least action-packed Potter film so far. No doubt the next one will make up for that though.

Back to the chart: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is up from #3 to #2 due to being cut to under £30 at most high street stores. Rhythm Paradise is back in the chart at #21 because of the new TV advert featuring Beyonce while the duly titled Fallout 3: Game Add-On Pack is this week’s biggest faller going from #22 to #39.

After just one week, The Conduit is out of the top 40. I can’t see it coming back, unless Game, GameStation and the like drop it to £20 pretty sharpish.

UK Charts

Nintendo’s Punch Out failed the set the charts ablaze (it didn’t even make it into the top 40, believe it or not) but EA’s Fight Night Round 4 is doing nicely at #1 for its second week. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 goes in at #2 with the PlayStation 3 version shifting the most copies.

The top 10 new entries don’t end there. Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood shoots in at #6 while Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince at #10. I wasn’t expecting Harry to chart so high with the movie release still a week away.

Prototype drops from #2 to #8, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen rises from #6 to 3.

The only other new entry is the duly titled Fallout 3: Game Add on Pack at #27. I might even get round to playing my copy of Fallout 3 some when this year.
