UK Charts Even though reportedly out of stock, Red Dead Redemption manages to stick to the top of the chart. Bloody brawler UFC: Undisputed 2010 enters the ring, sorry, chart at #2 with 2010 FIFA World Cup at #3 followed by Just Dance and Wii Fit Plus. Actvision’s Blur and Sega’s super spy sim Alpha …
UK Charts My, my, my – there’s four new entries in the top 10 chart this week. It’s almost as if it’s the Christmas new release rush has come six months early. The apparently amazing Red Dead Redemption goes straight to #1, pushing 2010 FIFA World Cup to #2. Split/Second skids in at #5, Price …
UK Charts Less than stellar reviews for Lost Planet 2 haven’t done it any harm, with Capcom’s shooter arriving at #3 in the chart. Alan Wake goes in at #2 while 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa stays on the top of the chart and will probably continue to do so until the World Cup …
UK Charts Sales on the high street, specifically at Game and GameStation, have seen dozens of titles climb back up the chart – Modern Warfare 2 is up from #9 to #3, Alien Vs Predator goes from #21 to #15 and Wolfenstien is back at #38 due to being cut to £9.99 at the former …

UK Charts Yes, it’s a monster – Capcom’s Monster Hunter Tri has entered the chart at a respectable #5. This is very good news indeed considering that the future of western releases for the series pretty much depended on Tri’s success. Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Conviction is still #1 and Just Dance remains at #2. …
UK Charts It must be really hard for publishers to predict what games will sell well on Wii. I say this because Rugby League 3, which has had next to no publicity, has managed to get to #5 in the Wii chart. When you consider Red Steel 2 is at #7, that’s quite a feat. …
UK Charts Publishers – if want your new videogame to sell, simply stick the word ‘just’ in the title – Just Dance has gone back to the top of the top 40 chart this week, while Just Cause 2 drops to #2. New DLC for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has helped it go …
UK Charts Nintendo’s battling monsters show no sign of loosing popularity – Pokemon: Soul Silver goes in at #2 this week with Pokemon: Heart Gold at #4. I would have placed money on it being the other way around. Square-Enix’s Just Cause 2 takes the top spot of the chart but if sales of the …
UK Charts Well done, Sony – God of War III has become their second #1 of the year. In the whole of 2009 they only had one #1, which was Killzone 2. THQ’s shiny new FPS Metro 2033 shoots in at #5 under Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Final Fantasy XIII and Just Dance. Bioware’s Dragon …
UK Charts I’ve lost count of the amount of new releases going straight to the top of the chart this year. Square-Enix’s Final Fantasy XIII is the latest to do so and has pushed Battlefield: Bad Company 2 to #2. It’s the fastest selling game of the year and 54% of copies sold were on …
UK Charts It’s yet another #1 for EA – Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has gone straight to the top of the chart. The Xbox 360 version has sold the most amount of copies (53%), followed by PlayStation 3 (31%) and PC (16%). Shortages of Heavy Rain have seen it fall from #1 to #4. Sonic …
UK Charts The law of gravity also applies to the top 40 chart – what comes up, must come down. Aliens vs Predator was #1 last week. It’s now at #2, knocked off the top by the heavily promoted Heavy Rain. It’s the first Sony-published title to take the top of the chart since Killzone …
UK Charts It’s a good week for Sega – despite mixed reviews Alien Vs Predator has managed to shove Bioshock 2 off the top of the chart after just one week. Rebellion also claim that it’s the fastest selling game of the year so far, beating even Bioshock 2. Sega’s Vancouver 2010 tie-in is in …
UK Charts If you’ll excuse the rubbish pun, it shouldn’t be a shock to discover that Bioshock 2 is top of the top 40 chart this week. What is slightly shocking though is that Bayonetta has gone all the way back up from #36 to #10 thanks to some heavy price cuts – both Zavvi …
