Who said PC gaming was dead? Ok, possibly me on occasion, but this week's UK chart proves there is life in the PC market yet. And it doesn't just mean a new World of Warcraft or Sims expansion! Yes, Empire: Total War is straight in at number 1. The rather wonderful strategy game knocks Sony's Killzone 2 from the perch. And that's despite customer support issues with Steam and Nvidia graphics cards.
Elsewhere Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X flies in at number 6. I've been playing this over the last week and have been rather enjoying. And that's despite the fact that I usually prefer my flight combat a little more historical. Give me the whites of a Meschersmitt pilot's eyes over launching a missile at dot on the horizon any day. But HAWX has enough appeal – co-op is especially fun – that I'll be sticking with it for a while. The same can't be said for Halo Wars. As predicted by me last week the console RTS is already beginning to fall – it's down to 5 this week – and will likely drop out of the 10 by next week.
So, anyone here got Total War or H.A.W.X? What do you think?
