This week's top rental charts from U.S. game rental company GameFly, representing the most requested games for the week ending February 9, highlight both to-be-released and already released games in a unique demand-specific chart.
As was the case last week, Microsoft's upcoming Xbox 360 sandbox action game
Crackdown continued to be the most requested title across all platforms for the week, with the game set to debut on February 20. Electronic Arts' arcade style
NBA Street Homecourt, which the company notes will be the first title for the Xbox 360 to feature support for 1080p resolution, was the second most requested title for the week, followed by Capcom's snowy action adventure
Lost Planet. These titles also represented the most requested Xbox 360 titles for the week as well, making the console again the source of the most requested games for the service.
Wii requests were headlined by Sega's upcoming
Sonic and the Secret Rings, followed by Nintendo's own
Mario Party 8 and
Wario Ware: Smooth Moves. Sega also dominated the PlayStation 3 chart as well, this time with
Virtua Fighter 5 and
Sonic the Hedgehog taking the top two spots. Take Two's
Major League Baseball 2K7 rounded out the top three requests for Sony's latest console.
Stepping back a console generation, Sony's upcoming
God of War II unsurprisingly took top honors for PlayStation 2 requests for the week, followed by
Rogue Galaxy and Take Two's movie and comic book adaptation
Ghost Rider. Xbox requests were topped by
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance from Activision, while Eidos'
Justice League Heroes and Activision's
Call of Duty 3 rounded out that console's top three.
GameCube requests for the week were once again dominated by
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, followed by
Mario Party 7 and D3P's anime inspired fighting game
Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2. Requests for the Game Boy Advance were again topped by
Final Fantasy VI Advance and
Final Fantasy V Advance in the top two spots on the chart, with Nintendo's own
Pokemon Emerald rounding out the list in third.
The recently released
Diddy Kong Racing DS was the most requested title for the Nintendo DS, with other DS releases
Lunar Knights from Konami and
Hotel Dusk from Nintendo taking the second and third positions respectively. Finally, PSP requests were topped by
Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters , followed by Take Two's
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories in second and Konami's
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops in third.
