Assassin's Creed 2 and New Super Mario Bros. Wii both released this week, but neither were able to top the might of Modern Warfare 2. They take second and third place respectively, as Activision looks set to repeat the ludicrous success that last year's World at War enjoyed.
Left 4 Dead 2 debuted at a respectable, if not mind blowing, number seven on the chart. Otherwise, sports, fitness and racing games once again have majority control over the list, occupying eleven of the chart's twenty positions.
Hit the jump for the usual numbers.

Also those headers still don't deter me from moving to the UK. God I want to move to the UK. I gotta lay off the Indie UK films.
And good to see AC2 at number 2. It really is a brilliant game. MW2 still number one was fairly obvious though.

It's normal for big games to see a huge drop off in sales after the first week tho. So I it's not like 86% should come as a huge shock. :p
MW2 is dominating the charts now, but NSMB Wii is gonna STAY on the charts for a very long time.
Yeah I was going to say it's an awesome game but if it's selling so damn well why's it so hard to find people playing online?! And in the chance you do find them they're all bumfudge poopsockers who obsess about shaving seconds and give you an earful of curses if you DARE bump into them.
Not really, but a man can always hope? XD
L4D2 just passed MW2 on steam recently. :p
And the guys, they're Italians, I can recognize Juventus Logo on the right guy's shirt. =P
Though it's depressing that Tekken 6 isn't on there at all while SvR2010, the dullest WWE game ever made, is still hanging in there.
7th place for an exclusive on the big userbase? For the most anticipated racing game yet? Like the best racing game on the console so far? - It's a shame to say the least.
I'm looking forward to seeing where GT will hit, when it finally comes out!
