PES has stormed to the top of the UK charts this week, knocking FIFA from its perch. With Football Manager 2008 just below those two, it's an all footie top three. Zelda and Ratatouille follow with Orange Box, Metroid Prime 3 and Halo 3 surprisingly lurking near the foot of the top ten. High School Musical: Makin' the Cut and Cooking Mama claim the last two spots.
It's comforting to see the old PES/FIFA rivalry surviving into the 'next-gen' era, despite the fact that neither game has reviewed as strongly as previous iterations. Meanwhile, Football Manager retains its grasp on the public consciousness, even without a console conversion (the still not quite there PSP version doesn't count). I'd love to see Sports Interactive attempting a Wii translation, perhaps with players using the motion controller to produce extravagant gestures from the technical area.
