ELSPA GfK-ChartTrack reports that EA’s Fight Night Round 4 has held on for a second week at the top of the All Formats All Prices UK video game chart, despite a 35 per cent drop-off in sales.

EA also claims the No.2 position with new release Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 – the second of five EA Sports titles inside the Top 20: Grand Slam Tennis at No.11, EA Sports Active at No.14 and FIFA 09 at No.17.

Activision’s Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is up 30 per cent and climbs three places to No.3, while Wii Fit and UFC 2009 are both non-movers at No.4 and No.5 respectively. The week’s second highest new entry comes from Ubisoft’s Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood at No.6, while EA’s Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince is at No.10 – expect this to rise considerably once the movie opens in cinemas.

After what’s been a fairly busy few weeks for new releases, the coming Friday seems quiet by comparison, with only SEGA’s The Conduit likely to make any real impact in the chart. The game’s managed to build a lot of pre-release hype, but how high will it chart?
