Last week, the UK number one chart position enjoyed a brief reprieve from bayonets and screaming banzai attacks as FIFA 09 smacked Call of Duty: World at War into second place. Well, Bobby Kotick can resume rubbing his swollen, gold-filled ballbags with erotic glee once again, as CoD is back on top.
Amazingly, the charts have barely changed at all since I've started making this a weekly feature. Just remember last week's chart and slightly rearrange a few titles. I don't think there is really anything fantastically new to tell you. Sonic Unleashed somehow got into the top ten, and Gears of War 2 crawled up a little to number 12, but there's nothing else of note. Nothing.
The sheer lack of anything resembling a LittleBigPlanet is pretty bad too. No Sony exclusives in the top twenty is rough going, especially with LBP hoping to be a big holiday hit. L'sigh.
Hit the jump for the full top twenty.

I love it when you post faceplam worthy 'chav' pics Jim, keep 'em coming. ;)
People aren't going out to the store to pick up the game - it's a pack-in with a wiimote, so it's a matter of coming home with a wiimote, or coming home with a wiimote and a new game to try it out with for an additional 2 pounds. (I'm basing this on the Amazon UK prices, I have no idea what the costs are in the stores)
I see these people every day now. Hanging out with their bicycles. They have truly redefined my concept of white trash.
