After sitting at the top of the chart for five consecutive weeks, it’s another THQ title in Saints Row that finally replaces Cars at the top. Saints Row has become the UK’s second fastest selling Xbox 360 title behind Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter.
Four “The Sims” titles now reside in the Top 40, with a new entry this week at No.5 for The Sims 2: Glamour Life. Despite falling from No.6 to No.7, Brain Training is this week’s biggest gainer, with sales up 34% over last week. Reservoir Dogs, last week’s disappointing new entry at No.14, manages to climb five places to No.9.
In face of stiff competition with the release of Saints Row, Microsoft’s Ninety-Nine Nights falls eleven places to No.19, barely clinging on to a Top 20 place. This week’s only other title worth mentioning is Sony’s Gangs of London on the PSP, debuting at the top of the PSP Full Price Chart, but only managing No.23 in the All Formats All Prices Chart.
Next week’s chart promises a lot of action with the release of four new Xbox 360 titles: Dead Rising, Test Drive Unlimited, Enchanted Arms and Madden NFL 07. It’s surely going to be a battle at the top between Saints Row, Dead Rising and Test Drive, with my money on Dead Rising. Ultimate Ghosts ‘n Goblins for the PSP should also make an appearance, although it’s unlikely to trouble the Top 20.
