As the UK market enters a slow period, after the slew of new releases around Easter, there is only one new entry in the top ten this week, in the form of the Xbox version of
Doom 3. The game has performed much better than some analysts expected, becoming the second fastest selling Xbox game ever in the UK after
Halo 2.
The critically maligned
FIFA Street is still at number one, although only 3,000 unit sales now separate the top three titles.
The only other movement of interest is the re-entry of
The Incredibles into the top ten, influenced by the release of the movie on DVD, and the return of
Super Mario 64 DS. The latter seems to suggest the Nintendo DS is continuing to find favor in the usually Nintendo-unfriendly UK, despite more and more prominent pre-order campaigns for the PSP (which still has no release date in Europe).
The only other entry in the top forty is
Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil at number twenty-seven, which does not seem to have benefited from the high profile of the Xbox version, and perhaps suggests that PC owners do not recall
Doom 3 with as much fondness as Id Software might have hoped.
