PS3 storms UK top ten
Resistance, MotorStorm up top.
After hardware sales saw Sony's PS3 achieve record success in the UK, it's not surprising to see software for the new home console also bedding into the all-formats charts.
Insomniac's Resistance: Fall of Man and Evolution Studios's MotorStorm take the number one and two positions respectively, scoring hits for first-party development.
However, Codemaster's Brian Lara International Cricket 2007 took the number three position in the charts, proving that it wasn't necessary to be on a new console to achieve high sales during the busy launch weekend.
The multiformat Virtua Tennis 3 took the number four position in the charts, while Activision's Call of Duty 3 saw a boost from new format sales - jumping from number 20 to number five.
Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories still managed to perform well at a budget price on the back of its recent PS2 outing, sitting at number six in the charts and beating the PS3-exclusive Formula 1: Championship Edition at number seven.
THQ's long-awaited PC shooter S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Chernobyl achieved good sales on its first weekend of release, taking the number eight position in the all-formats chart.
EA's Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 is at nine this week and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2 is at number ten.
There are plenty of other new entries in the top twenty this week, with Bandai Namco's Ridge Racer 7 at number 11 just ahead of EA's Def Jam: Icon at number 12.
SEGA's Virtua Fighter 5 enters the charts at number 14, EA's UEFA Champions League 2006-2007 at number 15 and Sony's Genji: Days of the Blade at 16.
Ubisoft's TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles also makes its debut this week at number 19, while EA's Fight Night Round 3 and Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog both enjoy a sales spurt due to PS3 releases - they're at numbers 13 and 24 respectively.
A look at the specific PlayStation 3 chart reveals that Sony has four first-party developed titles in the top twenty, with Resistance, MotorStorm and Formula 1 holding the top three positions. Electronic Arts has five titles in the top twenty, SEGA has four and Activision has three.
