FIFA 09 Hits #1 in UK

EA's FIFA 09 has become UK's all-format Christmas number one following an eleventh-hour sales surge at the retailers. The highly successful sports title, which has hovered around the top half of the charts since its October release, snatched the accolade from the bookies' odds-on favorite Call Of Duty: World At War.

Treyarch's war shooter had held number one in the charts for nearly a record-breaking six successive weeks, yet promotion at the retailers saw sales in FIFA 09 mushroom 89% overnight, sending World At War to second spot.
