This Week's UK X360 Top 20 Charts
Written Monday, February 08, 2010 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

No surprises as Mass Effect 2 hangs onto the top spot for a second week, giving EA chart positions one and two, as Dante's Inferno damns Modern Warfare 2 to third place.

Outside the bottom of the charts Dark Void's jetpack splutters, sending it out of the top 20 alongside the caped crusader. Madden NFL 10 meanwhile gets drafted in to number 21, despite all the Superbowl buzz.

Elsewhere, we have trouble fathoming how the brilliant Bayonetta has plummeted so far down the rankings while THQ's Darksiders also loses out big time, dropping a staggering eight places to the very bowels of the charts.

Next week's prediction for number 1? Hmm...BioShock 2, maybe?

@#1 & #2 - You know who you are. You're lucky I'm in a good mood cause it's our birthday, otherwise you'd be banned so hard right now. Want to criticise our reviewers in a non-constructive manner, go elsewhere. Consider yourself warned. If I see either of you do it again, I won't hesitate to ban you.

I love how comments 1 and 2 completely take the piss out of a site they've actually signed up for and continually use. Wow, seriously, morons.
Sweet to see ME2 still going strong, can't wait to get it next week, bloody wages =P

I can't see how some of the games are actually still in the top 20, I agree with mass effect being number 1 though dante's shouldn't be that high

@17 = If I remember correctly, Halo 3 ODST was Gamestation's game of the week last week, and was half price (£20).

As for the rest of the games, I cannot afford any purchases right now, as I'm between homes, but there is a LOT I'm interested in.

Mass Effect 2 (And mass effect 1, which I've got sealed at my last residence, but have never played yet - it's on my todo list. Lol), Bioshock 2, Borderlands, Assassin's Creed 2 (I'm still MEH about this title, dunno if I want it or not), Army of 2 TFD, and Also both PC and 360 versions of Vancouver 2010, so I can double on achievement poitns for those :D

Also, to continue on my post...Bayonetta was hyped majorly, but I didn't see that much actual interest from people actually IN stores.

ME2 should be at the top for a while. Followed by AvP and Bioshock soon. Good to see Overrated Warfare 2 going down. :)

@18/19 i worked at gamestation with the release of bayonetta, yeah it did get alot of hype and it didnt sell as many as what people hoped for but it still sold alot more than the above average game.
in relation to the chart;
Bioshock will be number 1
AvP will be number 1 then slip down to number 2
bioshock will be back at 1
Bad Company 2 Will be 1 and stay at 1 for awhile

Just to point out, I was #1, and my post basically said the x360a review of Dantes Inferno was poor/pathetic.

How am I meant to fit something "constructive" into one of these posts, when they're word/character capped, hardly a decent forum on the front page, and generally you're greeted with a bunch of narrow minded idiots, as expressed by #9.

Also, #10, I hardly call that taking the piss. As of late, I have found all the word play, and the consistent harsh reviews a bit over the top. So stfu :D

@#28 - Harsh reviews? 77 is a good score. Just because you don't agree with the score, doesn't give you a right to abuse the writer's review. It's an opinion... deal with it.

Word play? Over-the-top? Have you visited the rest of the internet before? Actually, have you read a newspaper before? I've expressed my opinion on the matter, so I'm done. Thank you. Come again.

Webb, I didn't abuse his review. To add to my post, #28, I actually called the review "shitty".

And I'm curious as to what the other guy said as well.

Bryce, why the fuck do you always have to write your name down the bottom of very comment? Are you that egotistical or just desperate for attention?

Weird Dante's Inferno is up so high and Bayonetta is so low. I bought Bayonetta and spent 20 hours on one play through and absolutely love that game. Just rented Dante's inferno and looks like I might finish in 10 or so hours then another couple to pick up achievements...

In my opinion Bayonetta is such a superior action game. The combos are always fun to do and the action is so smooth. Dante's Inferno (while having the better storyline and also bare tits) just get's a bit boring it seems already.
