British people love their racism, so it’s not surprising that thetotally racistResident Evil 5has topped the UK charts this week, sendingEmpire: Total Warfrom the previous top spot right down to number eight. Methinks the BNP has been buying a few copies for the office.
In other news,Wii Fithas now made its way to number two in the charts, proving that people are always willing to be suckered in by weight-loss snake oil. Professor Laytonis still riding high at number four, which used to confuse me until I saw a TV commercial with the ugly slag fromFriendspromoting it like just another casualBrain Traininggame. No wonder the mediocre masses like it.
Killzone 2andHalo Warsare still toughing it out in the top ten,FIFA 09is of course there, as isMario & Sonic. The big shocker this week is that there is NO sign ofGuitar Hero. OMG ACTIVISION IS GOING BUST!
