Another week, another round of UK chart positions, and yet another top slot for Activision’sCall of Duty: World at War. It’s hardly surprising that a World War II game does so well in the UK. After all, WWII was the last time Britain was evergoodat something.
Resistance 2seems to be followingLittleBigPlanet‘s footsteps by having respectable sales, but failing to set the charts on fire like its rivals’ exclusives have done. WhileGears of War 2and anything on the Wii have all enjoyed top positions, Insomniac’s PS3-exclusive shooter debuts at number ten.
It is interesting to note thatLips, Microsoft’s big “casual” title that was supposed to bring in all sorts of new consumers, failed to chart in the top twenty at all. Given the huge success ofSingStarin the UK, this makes it doubly interesting. Not that I expect Microsoft to take the hint and focus on itsownmarket. I’m sure MS will continue desperately aping the Wii.
Otherwise, it’s the usual suspects ofFIFA 09,Need for SpeedandBrain Training. Hit the jump for the full chart listing.
