@Munkeh

it sure is

I've had 2 of my xbox friends saying to me

"oh yeah that Heavenly Sword game looks cool, r u gonna buy it"

It's being well advertised here in UK...

obviously i didn't tell them it's cons n why I won;t buy it (cough**5 hours**cough), I was like naaaaaah , I'll get Ratchet (which will have its own HUGE ad campaign)

Woah! After HS falling out the top 40, I thought I'd never see it back in the top 10. NIce job!

 My friend was watching TV with his mum and she saw the advert and thought it had something to do with brain control, so to prove her wrong he got it, then finished it twice within a couple of school days, which then meant that he leant it to me and I still have it, so I have found the ideal way of playing it, I finished it in less than 6 hours

@Munkeh

lol

BTW

thats ad is pretty cool

Heavenly sword is bundled with the ps3 not too suprising, resistance hit 2 million already right?

Leo-j, HS isnt bundled with the PS3. RFoM and motorstorm are with the 60gb version.

^not always throughout Europe. In the UK you get a choice of two from R: FoM, MS, Genji, F1, RR and Heavenly Sword

Did Zelda TP get a price cut? It reappears in the charts and climbs from 15 to 4 in the Wii-only list.

Sony's popular karaoke franchise SingStar continues to sell strongly on the PlayStation 2 with three games from the series appearing in the overall charts.
