Red Dead Redemption (PS3, Xbox 360)

As I predicted, last week's new releases fail to get into the top 5, although Sims 3 expansion pack, Ambitions, did get to a respectable 6^th position. Elsewhere, things are pretty much identical to last week's chart apart from a switch between 2010 Fifa World Cup and UFC 2010. Red Dead Redemption continues to do really well in top spot, I'm so pleased that it continues to do strong sales figures week on week since it is one of the year's strongest titles thus far.

Next week sees Green Day: Rock Band released as well as Mario's latest adventure in Super Mario Galaxy 2, which I expect to gain top spot, not halted by Galaxy's relatively poor sales figures two years ago. The IP is now much stronger, and the new title has been picking up exceptional scores, including a 10/10 from Edge magazine! Sadly, it's not a game I'm going to be picking up after my Wii is long gone.

*New Entry*

UFC Undisputed: 2010 (PS3, Xbox 360)

1

Red Dead Redemption (PS3, Xbox 360)

The only new entry to enter the top 5 this week is THQ brawler UFC Undisputed: 2010 which has suceeded again in delivering extremely good sales figures in its opening week. Elsewhere, the release of Blur failed to get nearly the amount of sales that I was expecting and is way down the chart in 14^th, pipped only by Alpha Protocol in 13^th. Split/Second: Velocity, meanwhile, slips from the top five as Red Dead Redemption hangs on to the top position for the second week running in a bountiful array of “sold out” news stories littering the Internet.

Next week's release schedule which sees expansion to The Sims 3, Ambitions and Naughty Bear are less than likely to trouble the top 5 come a week.
