Force Unleashed dominates UK charts

Hell's Highway, Pure feature. Top 40 inside.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is sitting pretty at the top of the UK all-formats chart for a second week running.

The game swatted away familiar attacks to leave the top three unchanged: Wii Fit at two and Mario Kart Wii at three.

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway, at four, was the highest of the new entries this week. Pure also made a top 10 debut at eight.

Fleshing out the top flight were Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 at five, Wii Play at six, Carnival: Funfair Games at seven, Big Beach Sports at nine and Guitar Hero III at 10.

Mercenaries just missed out and tumbled to 11, followed by Warhammer Online, which spends its second week down at 13.

Elsewhere, there were new entries for Family Trainer at 20, as well as a reappearance from Halo 3 at 30 - buoyed by, we like to think, the controversial teaser trailer for the new Bungie add-on.
