:x strawberry float's sake, British games-buying public. Number 18 in the Wii charts. Bunch of wankers.

Rant aside, interesting to see Monster Hunter doing...okay. And a Dynasty Warriors game in the top 40? Has the world gone mental?

Canton, can you edit that and put it in a code block instead of a quote block? It might make it a bit easier to read I think.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

It is seriously impressive that Wii Fit is so high. Well deserved in my opinion. Believe it or not, there is a very real market out there for something like that and it is actually a quality concept.

Anyone know how often Wii Fit is used after the purchase?

Does it get 2-3 weeks use at max?

Next week's placing of Grand Slam Tennis will depend on Murray's performance this week.

The game is on show at Wimbledon BTW (& playable). I wouldn't say it's in a very 'hot' position though.

It is maybe their own fault, they still don't have it in my local Blockbuster so maybe didn't ship that much. Bloody pain, really want it but to get it from there as I have nearly enough in credit to buy it but can't use the credit at another, bigger, Blockbuster.

Anyone picked up Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires yet? Opinions? The fact that it was released at a £17.99 price point is both tempting and worrying at the same time...

I was actually going to get it from Blockbuster too by trading in some of my old games. :?

I hope mine have it.

Activision Blizzard really don't need it though, would have been better to see Red Faction selling more. THQ could do with a bigger hit...and its the better game too.
