UK Charts: Spider-Man 3 holds on to top spot

Activision movie tie-in holds off challenge from resurgent Command and Conquer 3

Spider-Man 3 has held on to the top spot for the second week in the ChartTrack All Formats top 40 listing.

The title, which entered in first place last week, has managed to hold off a strong challenge from Command & Conquer 3, which comes in at second this week thanks to its release on the Xbox 360. Cooking Mama for the Nintendo Wii which manages a very respectable sixth, up from 23rd last week.

The biggest climber of the week is Pro Evolution Soccer 6, with Konami’s football game storming back up the chart into fourth thanks to going Platinum. Fellow football-fest FIFA '07 also moves up from seventh to fifth.

Also on the rise this week is Square Enix's DS title Final Fantasy III, which moves up from eleventh to seventh, thanks to some heavyweight TV marketing.

God of War II slips just outside of the top ten at eleventh after three weeks in the charts, while fellow Sony stable-mates SingStar and Buzz! The Mega Quiz fall to eighth and 12th respectively after strong starts.
