This Week's UK X360 Top 20 Charts

Lee Bradley

FIFA Street stays top of the league this week, seeing off competition from Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. Capcom's disappointing shooter went straight into second spot, despite largely lackluster review scores. Meanwhile, in the midst of the furore surrounding the ending of Mass Effect 3, BioWare's controversial sci-fi epic slipped to third place.

Despite this, however, the UK charts still look incredibly healthy for EA. The publisher has five of the top ten games.

Elsewhere, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary makes the most dramatic move this week. The classic FPS remake almost dropped off of the charts last week in 17th place. This week it storms up to seventh. Cue Grunt death cheers. On the other end of the spectrum is Zumba Fitness Rush. The Kinect flavoured dancing game dropped all the way from eighth to 18th. Eek.

Full chart below.

  • My fingers are to fat . Sorry for the above . How is resident evil even second ? It's an appalling shooter with random resident evil parathanalia thrown in . If they relay on 1-3 to sell a game so badly why change the while direction to a messy , glitchy , boring shamble of shot that is Orc ?
  • Nice to see forza climbing :)
  • @2 You should apologise for your second post too, have you ever heard of proof reading?
  • Wow Halo:CEA goes up to 10, still need to 1k that one haha
  • @4 sorry professor jed. My phone made the word while instead of whole . I'm sure if you put some thought into it you could have worked that out yourself and let pass . Now that's cleared up you pompous twat maybe comment on topic .
  • i enjoyed orc, i think its great fun,and a change from the usual shooters around (but i do really love my resi (especially 1-3)). good looking chart!
  • RE:ORC was a bit of a disappointment for me. I am very surprised that it got on the charts at all. it just doesn't feel like a RE game.
  • @8 True,it didnt play like a resi game ,(infinite ammo and 4 players) but being in the middle of a shit storm of zombies being chased around by hunters /lickers and tyrants sure made me feel like i was playing a resi game.
  • @9 it's sold itself on being a rest game . Adding a piano playing moonlight sonata in a random room etc . The game had no dignity at all . The cover system is fucked and the ai is shocking . Someone say . Play it online ! The matching making is fucked as well . And don't get me started on no headshots on the marines and how many bullets it takes to kill a bow
  • @10 ok the cover system is very bad and a,i are gay, but when moonlight started playing and i was spraying my mob special into a room full of zombies, well, that did make me smile like a nostaglgic kid, that song is very special to me.
  • Still seems that Battlefield will never defeat modern warfare.
  • @11 I appreciate what you're saying . But if you took those cameos away. Would this game be any good ?
  • Agree with number 4.... you should have proof read arron. Being on a phone is no excuse for such a shitty piece of grammar. If your fingers are too fat for phone typing, then stop eating twinkies, get away from the screen & go get some exercise plz.
  • @13 Absolutley not, the game itself is quite ropey, and i guess i enjoy it so much because its set in raccoon city, thats the power of resi (to me).
  • @14 it was a single spelling error not grammar . In this country a Twinkie is a toddler name for a cock , So of you eat those it's your choice . My fingers are fat as they are manly . Not limp dainty girlie fingers that you probably have . And im nowhere near a screen I'm on a phone remember ? Oh and "plz" try and comment on the article . I know I'm interesting. @15 and that's the reason why it's number two !! I just wanted more . A lot more . I also now fear for the 6th .
  • Hey Arron,I suppose I was perturbed by you calling someone a 'pompous twat'. Not called for, but hey if you like name calling I thought you would like my post. Is it a freudian slip that you correlate 'twinkie' & 'penis'? & yes, a phone has a screen. & yes I have dainty, nimble girly fingers (good for gaming:P!)
  • Hi lazy faquer. I feel we got off on the wrong foot . I get heavily offended when someone dedicates an entire post to a one off spelling error . Riles me somewhat . But I appreciate your intervention . I find the biggest problem with the iPhone is it has no contextual grammar checker built it which leads for awful spelling anomalies . If you do come to the uk I'd advice not asking for a Twinkie in your mouth . But I'll be sure to ask for one the best time I'm stateside . Be thankfull of your fingers it makes quick time events a lot raise .... Which brings me into this weeks other disappointment . Ninja kill cam 3 .
  • Hi Arron, looks like your iPhone is doing a good job at butchering your witty posts! :) (I have one too so I know what you mean). Yeah, maybe we did get off on the wrong foot... I suppose just as you get riled with me dedicating a post to a spelling mistake, I get riled when you call people 'pompous twat'... even if it isn't my business:) Let's start again! Ps I'm from the UK & have never heard anyone call their manhood a twinkie!?!? WTF? You should be calling it a frankfooter IMO! OT; i leik Gaemz
  • @19 it may well be a manchester thing or just an arron114 thing either that or I'm talking rubbish. Personally If I had to choose a name I'd probably go for grand staff . It is making a mockery of my wit. It may well be karma for switching from a wp7. Ot : everyone play binary domain . Great game .
  • ^Hey, & less of the thinly vieled Gaiden Trolling!
  • I'm quite surprised that FIFA is still topping the charts, not calling it a bad game (not played it ) but from what i can remember, it's not usually the genre that holds onto the top spot! @12 BF3 has been above MW3 a few times in these charts. @18... Yeah, like @19 I'm also from the UK and I've never heard the word twinkie being used to refer to a penis regardless of age, and I've been stationed over most of the country!
  • Witcher 2 out next month, cannot wait!!!
  • i think we should do like we did with that guy from x factor make an old awesome game knock fifa street off the top spot. something like cod2 or rockstars table tennis. both very cheap - both very awesome.
  • Battlefield 3 will hopefully be over MW3 when Close Quaters DLC is out!
  • this is beautiful, you guys have made me feel all warm inside :)
  • Resi FTW!
  • some people know how to be annoying in these comments.
  • cant see the fascination in sports games, i cant play 1 for more than 5 mins i get so bored.
  • EA 4 of the top 5 last week... makes me sad.
