GfK ChartTrack reports that EA’s 2010 FIFA World Cup has made it two weeks at the top, once again preventing Ubisoft’s Just Dance from claiming the top prize.

The week’s big mover was Activision’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, up six places to No.3 as a result of retailer promotions. Wii Fit Plus is up to No.4, Bad Company 2 climbs to No.5 and Super Street Fighter IV slips four places to No.6.

There was no Top 40 place for Wii exclusive Sin and Punishment: Successor of the Skies and WarioWare DIY had to settle for 24th.

Next week’s chart looks set for quite a shake up, though, with the release of Lost Planet 2, Alan Wake and Skate 3. Will the power of exclusivity prove enough to see Alan Wake top the chart, or will the multi-platform availability of Lost Planet 2 and Skate 3 give them the edge? Lost Planet 2 also has the adventure of a longer run, released Tuesday, not Friday like the others.

Also with an outside chance of a Top 20 position are 3D Dot Game Heroes and Age of Conan: Rise of the Godslayer.
