PS3 Attitude | UK PS3 charts: Nothing can stop WaW

23
The feeling of 'deja vu' is in the air, since this is the fourth consecutive week Call of Duty: World at War remains in the top of the charts.

Activision has hit the jackpot with their "one CoD per year" tactic. The next Call of Duty Modern Warfare title is due to visit us in Fall 2009.

Here at PS3 Attitude Towers we are ok with that "fifalization" of the franchise, as far as they keep producing innovative quality games.

But let's see Chart Track's UK Charts for week ending 6 December 2008…

1.1 - LMAO @ 2 disagrees
So it's not good to see two fantastic games doing good? Wow, we have 2 more idiots here it seems!

COD:WAW is an awesome, underrated, and underappreciated game that deserves it's success.

I can't buy a game that comes out every year. I play the COD's and their great, but I don't like the every year deal. R2 and LBP seem to be doing just fine, and I would like to know how many copies of all these games have sold.

Anywho according to playstationlifestyle.net Amazon is offering a 1 day deal I think ends tonight where if you add a 80GB PS3, Resistance 2 Collector Edition, and the Dark Knight Blu Ray in your cart and enter the code PSKNIGHT then you will get the R2 CE and The Dark Knight Blu ray for free.

Happy holidays.

Underrated and underrated? Tha game has sold over 4 million copies already... How is that underrated?

I absolutely love the game and for me, the Zombie mode is pure bliss.

@ Foxgod,

Racing games are pretty popular in Europe and I'm sure most of them really don't care about the review scores.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue sold over a million copies over in Europe just in pre-orders alone, and Racing games usually tend to sell pretty well over there.

2.4 - It will be because
In the last 1 hour of woching tv, i have seen like 15 adverts for it, (along with like 30 360 ads!!!)

The ads make it seem like a decent game worth buying.

These are the people who buy games just because they have seen the adverts and think therefore it must be a good game. If only they knew lol

Mediocrity should not sell! Resistance 2 and Little Big Planet are fantastic games!!! Why can't they outsell COD:WaW???

This list is only PS3. If you look at games across all platforms, LBP and Resistance 2 are further down the list ;)

*EDIT* @ below:
Of course they're selling, the top ten list isn't going to have blank spaces.

From the all formats list.....
http://www.chart-track.co.u...

Resistance # 20 (DOWN FROM 10th last week)
LPB #29 (UP FROM 32 last week)

LOL! Guinness World Records: The Video Game is doing better than LBP.

I'm not a hater, I have Resistance 2 and LBP, but you have to keep things in perspective

5.2 - ElementX
If these games are flop sales wise in UK then they shouldn't be in any top ten charts. The point is its selling. Get it?.

Edit: The all format chart includes every games there are from handheld to last gen consoles to PC. Exactly what are you trying to prove?. Most of the games on this cart are from Nin and is not an indication of weather they are selling bad or not. Also these are just placings with no actual figures. For all we know R2 must have sold at least 100k in UK alone. Does that mean its a flop sales wise?. LBP actually moved up again.
