EA games Mercenaries 2, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 and Spore have held on at one, two and three respectively this week in the UK all-formats chart.

TNA iMPACT debuted at nine but the rest of the top ten remained largely unchanged.

Mario & Sonic surged up to four, knocking Wii Fit to five, ahead of non-mover Mario Kart Wii at six. Carnival: Funfair Games went round and round and round at seven, chased by Guitar Hero: On Tour, which pounded up from 18 to eight. Wii Play rounded out the chart at 10.

Further down and Rock Band - finally released on PS3, PS2 and Wii last week - reappeared at 30. Three places behind Guitar Hero III, if you fancy a bit of drama.

The biggest - notable - movers were Super Smash Bros. Brawl up from 22 to 13, Too Human down from 16 to 38, and Viva Piñata down from 23 to 40.

This week the top 40 waves goodbye to Infinite Undiscovery, Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky.
