As we predicted, Star Wars titles are dominating the chart this week, with the Episode III videogame entering at No.1 and Lego Star Wars slipping to No.2. FIFA Street maintains it strong performance and holds on to its No.3 position.

The second highest entry is for Pariah. The FPS from Hip Interactive has been receiving a good amount of print and online advertising and it appears to have paid off, despite a number of less than favourable reviews.

Next week sees the release of Microsoft’s Gran Turismo killer, Forza Motorsport, and Sony’s latest ‘Make and idiot of yourself’ title, SingStar Popworld. Both games should be high new entries in next week’s chart, but whether or not they can overpower the Star Wars titles remains to be seen.
