Ubisoft’s title holds off EA’s Need for Speed in PS3 and Xbox 360 charts
EA’s Need for Speed: Pro Street might have shifted up a gear in the ChartTrack All Formats Top 40 this week as it prepares for its campaign to capture the Christmas Number One crown, but Ubisoft’s popular Middle East-themed outing is holding tight in the next-gen console race.
Assassin’s Creed retains the top spot in both the Xbox 360 and PS3 Individual Format Charts this week, courtesy of ChartTrack.
Need for Speed: Pro Street does manage to claim second spot in the PS3 listings, and third spot in the Xbox 360 Top Ten, behind Activision’s Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
Elsewhere in the next-gen format charts, Eidos’ Kane & Lynch: Dead Men does well, claiming fourth spot in the PS3 list and sixth in the 360 chart. The only other new entry in the two charts is Midway’s Blacksite: Area 51, which enters the Xbox 360 race at number 14.

*** creed licks ***
Just goes to show you that if you hype up a game enough and give it a pretty surface the zombies will buy it in droves.....the game itself is complete rubbish and not worth anyone's time.
Re: *** creed licks ***
Couldn't agree more. But is this the first time you have noticed this ? The game charts are almost always topped by drivel - videogames are now massmarket - hence the massmarket advertising/sequels/bog standard production line games etc and hence the fact that worthy games generally do not get the respect they deserve while the crud rises to the top. Kinda like the music/file industry eh ?
Can someone please please explain why Super Mario Galaxy is not top of the chart ?
Re: *** creed licks ***
Because its on Wii - Wii does not get a high attachment rate.
Only 360 does.
Re: *** creed licks ***
mario is not top of the charts because its only out on one platform, all the high performers are multi platform to some extent.
Plus i expect at least 65% of the ppl who bought a Wii are casual gamers i.e. your mums and dads who just like novelty games rather than anything substantial
