UK chart: Wii Sports Resort holds lead

As Monster Hunter drops out of sight.

Wii Sports Resort spends another week atop the UK all-formats charts this week, enjoying a marginal bump in sales.

Wii Fit rises to two, while EA trio Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Fight Night 4 rest at three, four and five respectively.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen manages to make six, The Sims 3 takes seven and UFC 2009: Undisputed climbs back into the top-flight at eight.

EA Sports Active and Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood round out the list at nine and ten, respectively.

New releases are thin on the ground, with only film tie-in G-Force making the grade down at 26. Puzzle Kingdoms - the DS, PC and Wii game from the makers of Puzzle Quest - is nowhere to be seen.

Falling of the bottom this week are Ghostbusters and Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.
