UK Charts: Toy Story 3 again

UK Charts: Toy Story 3 again photo

This week's UK Chart listing is the most boring one ever. Almost nothing of interest happened, with Toy Story 3 back on top, Red Dead Redemption still hanging around, and most of Ubisoft's dancing crap polluting the world. Boring, boring stuff. 

Also, I don't get why Sniper: Ghost Warrior is STILL in the charts. That game is dreadful! Truly, the British gaming public has lost its mind. Still, at least it proves the argument that popularity does not equal quality, eh wot?

  1. Toy Story 3
  2. Red Dead Redemption
  3. Dance on Broadway
  4. LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4
  5. Art Academy
  6. Just Dance
  7. Dragon Quest IX
  8. Modern Warfare 2
  9. Super Mario Galaxy 2
  10. Madden NFL 11
  11. Bad Company 2
  12. Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty
  13. Sniper: Ghost Warrior
  14. FIFA 10
  15. Wii Sports Resort
  16. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11
  17. New Super Mario Bros. Wii
  18. Wii Fit Plus
  19. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands
  20. Aliens vs. Predator

More people need to buy Sniper: Ghost Warrior so they can all camp online together and the rest of us will play our multiplayer without the fuckwits.

I don't get Sniper's sales either. But it's been getting advertised on tv and you know how the British public hate not being told what to buy. At work we've sold about 20 copies. Considering I was sold out for a few days and it's the middle of summer that's quite a lot.

I guess the UK either got extra shipping of SCII or just don't care.

Great to see Dragon Quest 9 Is still in the top ten, hopefully it stays there for a while. You should all buy it.

Also, Jim, how do you search for these header images without punching your monitor?

Another week another bunch of ignorant Internet tough guys spouting shit based on games sales for a country.

Keep up the good work destructoid.

Starcraft 2 not on here it must be a console games only chart.

O wait it is there my mistake but so low according to vgchartz it is at the top for the EMEAA charts in which the UK is the largest game market. Maybe their chart is not as up to date.

The bad news is, Just Dance 2 is out in October. This will look glorius compared to the week after that's released.

Ah but Owen at that time the Juggernaut of Fifa 11 will be out and will put Just Dance 2 in its place with a swift kick.

I really wish people would stop with the "UK sucks" racist comments. Did it ever occur to you that most of the chart games are aimed at a casual crowd and that games like that sell pretty well in the US as well as the UK? Also consider the site you're on, most UK gamers on here probably like the same "hardcore" games that you do. I for one don't like any of the games in the chart, so I'll be sticking with MW2, Bayonetta, and RE5 (and various Wii games to play with my Fiancée) until Sonic 4, Metroid: Other M, Black Ops, Birth By Sleep and Halo: Reach are released. Just think before you post such shallows comments.

@PsychoticDust This is the internet your expected to post shallow comments also i agree with you that the US games chart is probably very similiar to the UK and I think destructoid should put the US charts up on here as well as the UK one.
