UK Charts
With four new entries in the top 10 chart alone this week there’s a lot to talk about, so let’s get cracking.
Fable III has managed to shove Fallout: New Vegas off the top, outselling Fable II by 6,000 copies during launch weekend. This makes it the third #1 for Microsoft this year. Last year they only managed one #1 (Halo 3: ODST).
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II goes in at #5 but I’d imagine it’ll drop quite heavily next week once word gets round about how poor it is. To quote one of NGamer Magazine’s writers on Twitter – “Man alive, The Force Unleashed 2 is a load of old shatâ€.
The better than you might expect Smackdown vs Raw 2011 smacks in in at #7 and the console ilteration of The Sims 3 goes in at #9. Coincidentally, the next new entry in the chart is The Sims 3: Late Night at #15. Then there’s Rock Band 3 at #26, which isn’t too great at all seeing that the likes of Eurogamer gave it 10/10, while The X-Factor gets a polite seated applause at #37.
