Since Sony is a worldwide company and the Playstation brand as worldwide as well, the time has come to see what is going on at the other side of the pond.
The UK's Gfk Chart Track has release data on the top ten best selling games in the UK. The interesting thing to note here is that the newly-released Resident Evil 5 tops the list, becoming the fastest selling entry in the venerable franchise to date.
According to that same data, the release of Resident Evil 5 also marks it as the UK's biggest number one seller since Activision’s Call of Duty: World at War, with the Capcom title outselling the combined sales of the other nine entries in the top ten.
"Ok, but Erik, what are the other nine?" I hear you. without further ado, here is the current list:
1. Resident Evil 5 (Capcom)
2. Wii Fit (Nintendo)
3. Tom Clancy’s HAWX (Ubisoft)
4. Professor Layton and the Curious Village (Nintendo)
5. Killzone 2 (Sony)
6. FIFA 09 (EA)
7. Call of Duty: World at War (Activision Blizzard)
8. Empire: Total War (Sega)
9. Halo Wars (Microsoft)
10. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Sega)
