Australian sales charts, 15/03/09

PALGN News | Evil arrives.
One of the most anticipated releases of 2009, Resident Evil 5, has, unsurprisingly, rocketed straight to the top of the charts, with the PlayStation 3 version cementing itself in first place, above the Xbox 360 edition at two. Right behind it in third place is Wii Play, roaring back into the charts after a few brief weeks in exile. Naturally, its partner in crime, Wii Fit, is still sniffing around the top of the charts, even if it dropped two places to close the week in fourth place. All this movement in the top half of the charts was bad for 360 RTS Halo Wars, which slumped from the top spot to close the week in fifth.

Also slumping is PS3 blaster Killzone 2, falling three slots to close the week in sixth place. Not quite what Sony would have been hoping for, then. Present and accounted for in seventh place is, shockingly, Mario Kart Wii, which simply refuses to go away, while the Wii incarnation of the Guitar Hero World Tour super bundle is flying the flag for the series in eighth. Positions nine and ten are occupied by two DS re-entries - Brain Training and Mario Kart DS, both back for the millionth time.












The charts are updated weekly and are provided by those wonderful people at GfK.

Hmm another top game with the PS3 version beating out the 360 one. Is a new trend emerging?
