UK charts: FIFA still top of the table News

PC PlayStation 2 PSP DS Xbox 360 PlayStation 3
News by Robert Purchese

12 October, 2009

FIFA 10 has scored a second week at the top of the UK all-formats chart, shrugging off a strong tackle from Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising at two.

That war game becomes Codemasters' fastest-ever seller, and builds on a strong run started by Ashes Cricket 2009 and Colin McRae: DiRT 2.

Layton, ODST and Guitar Hero all cling-on to top 10 spots and are joined by Gran Turismo PSP, which shifts up a gear to seven.

Inventive DS game Scribblenauts misses out at 12, but beats fellow newcomers Star Wars The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes (dreadful, remember) and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (DS) at 15 and 17, respectively.

Further down and Up, confusingly, makes a second-week impact at 26. The film is brilliant, for those who haven't seen it.

Bizarrely, Mario & Luigi 3: Bowser's Inside Story doesn't make the top 40, and has to settle for ninth in the DS-specific list.

Wii games Spore Hero and Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility also have disappointing first weeks, finishing at 28 and 38 on the Wii top 40.

I think the biggest shock has been how quickly The Beatles Rock Band has plummeted out of the top 40 so quickly after its release.

Poor Mario and Luigi (and Bowser). That is a great game right there.

Have people actually seen the feedback on Flashpoint:

http://community.codemasters.com/forum/f... - Console
http://community.codemasters.com/forum/f... - PC

I strongly suggest people check these out before buying the 'game'

Halo 3 ODST is now plummeting out of the chart.

No 6 already? Any Halo game should be a powerseller for months.

Good to see LittleBigPlanet and Killzone 2 back in the top 40. Quite surprised to see GTPSP in the all-format top 10! Great that PSP games can actually sell sometimes.

to not even see dead space in the top 40 is a crime pure and simple
