UK Chart Last week was definitely a good one for new releases, with no less than four new entries in the top 10 chart. Fable II takes #1, followed by Far Cry 2 at #2. EA’s apparently very good but not that scary Dead Space arrives at #6, with Midnight Club: Los Angeles at #10. …
UK Chart Last week not one but two NBA games were released. It’s slightly interesting to see that in the Xbox 360 chart Take 2’s NBA 2K9 has outsold EA’s NBA Live 09, whereas in the PlayStation 3 chart it’s the other way around. And by the word interesting, I mean not very interesting. At …
UK Chart FIFA 09 plays a good game of football, so it can only be a good thing that it has become the fastest selling FIFA so far. Furthermore, it has become the 3rd fastest selling game on Xbox 360 (behind Halo 3 and GTA IV), with 42% of sales being for Microsoft’s box. The …
UK Chart Now here’s a surprise – Wario Land: The Shake Dimension, Samba de Amigo and Sonic Chronicles have all failed to enter the top 40 chart. However, Pure – Disney’s ATV racer that’s had little publicity – skids in at a lofty #9. Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway goes in at #4, then lower …
UK Chart The headline? That’s as far as DS owners are concerned. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed only manages to get to #39 in the DS chart, whereas Mahjongg goes in at #17. Star Wars is top of the all formats chart though, and #1 in all three PlayStation charts, as well as Xbox 360. …
UK Chart Remember when the chart was full of £1 PC games that Asda was flogging? Something similar has happened. See, Morrisons had quite a good deal on last week – selected new Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 games were £25, Wii games £15 and DS games £12. This seems to have had a knock …
UK Chart The top three games in the chart this week are all published by EA – Mercenaries 2: World in Flames at #1, Tiger Woods 09 at #2 and Spore at #3 – but it’s not all good news for the company, with Facebreaker failing to break into the top 40 at all. It’s …
UK Chart Too Human manages to get to #1, but only in the Xbox 360 chart. Over in the all formats chart it makes its appearance at #8, with Tiger Woods 09 taking the top spot followed by Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit, Carnival: Funfair Games and Wii Play. Bejing 2009 has started to fall …
UK Chart There isn’t much in the way of action and excitement in the chart this week, with the top five games staying put. That means that Mario Kart Wii is still #1, followed by Wii Fit, Beijing 2008, Mario & Sonic and Wii Play. Carnival Games has risen from #13 to #6 thanks to …
UK Chart Stamina. Strength. Speed. Determination. What better way to recreate the feats required to enter the Olympics than by sitting at home with a piece of plastic in your hand? Beijing 2008 is up from #13 to #3, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games up from #8 to #4, and Summer Athletics from …
UK Chart With little in the way of new releases at this time of the year, it’s just a bit of a shuffle for the chart this week. Wii Fit finds itself back on top of the pile, with last week’s #1 Soulcalibur IV down to #2. Mario Kart Wii doesn’t involved in the shuffling …
UK Chart Lego Indiana Jones – which has been riding high since release – has been knocked all the way from the top of the chart to #5, with Wii Fit sitting atop the top 40 once again. The rubbish WALL-E stays at #2, with Mario Kart Wii at #3 and Guitar Hero: On Tour …
UK Chart With the film now out, WALL E has shot up the chart from #16 to #2. Shame, then, that it’s a load of rusty balls – three hours is all it takes to see pretty much everything. Lego Indiana Jones is back on top, followed by Wii Fit and Wii Play. Mario Kart …
UK Chart Just to prove that I’m utterly rubbish, my prediction that Unreal Tournament III for Xbox 360 might do very well in the chart has not exactly come true. It is the highest new entry, but that’s only at #18. It’s as you were at the top of the chart, with Super Smash Bros: …
