UK Charts: Football is blatantly better than football

It could only happen in the UK — a soccer game knocking another soccer game from the top spot. Yep, Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 has ended FIFA 10‘s dominance after just a few weeks, shunting EA’s footie game into third place while Forza Motorsport 3 swerves into second.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is down to sixth place from second, while Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games slowly climbs the charts, up from fifth place to fourth. WWE Smackdown Vs. Raw 2010 debuts at number five while Gearbox Software’s ambitious Borderlands debuts in seventh place, which is rather respectable for a game allegedly sent out to die. 

Hit the jump for the usual list of sports games and chicanery.
