Lost Planet: Extreme Condition appears to have some good legs as it makes it two successive weeks at No.1, its third in total. Capcom’s bona-fide hit has held off competition from PES 6 at No.2 and FIFA 07 at No.3.

This week’s highest new entry is the SEGA Mega Drive Collection on PSP and PS2. The game enters the All Formats chart at No.4, ahead of WarioWare: Smooth Moves at No.5. Several other Wii titles also continue to sell well; Wii Play is at No.7 and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is the week’s highest climber up from No.21 to No.13.

Nintendo also sees continued success for New Super Mario Bros. which re-enters the Top 10 at No.8, while Star Fox Command enters the Top 40 at No.26. The PSP also has something to cheer, with strong second week sales of Rocky Balboa forcing the game inside the Top 40 at No.27.

There are plenty of new titles set to storm the chart next week, with Battlestations: Midway, Charlotte’s Web, Okami and The Sims Life Stories the pick of the bunch.
