The Top Ten is also home to two additional new entries: Two Worlds surprises everyone and enters at No.4, while EA's The Sims 2: Bon Voyage is new at No.8. THQ's Stuntman: Ignition and Warms: Open Warfare 2 climb to No.6 and No.11 respectively, and Monster Hunter: Freedom 2 is the only other new entry, sneaking into the Top 40 at No.39.

Friday will be a busy day at video game retailers thanks to a flurry of high profile releases which include Colin McRae DiRT, Fatal Inertia, Freshly Picked - Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, Heavenly Sword, John Woo Presents Stranglehold, Super Paper Mario and Sonic Rush Adventure. Of those expect Stranglehold, Heavenly Sword and Super Paper Mario to place high in the chart.

i think the medal of honor games are great fun to play. the reson why i think there great to play is there not like any other shooting game it about world war 2 and thats great to see how it was fought and were it was fought, but now with games such as call of duty fading away from the world war 2 scene all together is terible.. brothers in arms is the only thing near medal of honor and call of duty was up there too when it was in the world war two action and excitment... so please call of duty stick too world war 2 and maybe in a couple of years or soo you can make a great game with the war wat is happening now at this moment in time. its not a great idea to do something like this when there really is people dieing from the same causes at war in the same place as the game is set.. and take this in to acount this was said by a 16 year old who heres about the bloody war in irac every single day..
i hope i havn't affended anybody but i think the game should be held back for another couple of years so people can think back wile playing the game and remeber all the people how fought for there country to be safe again.
