BKK2 on 20 November 2008
There's quite a discrepancy between the chart posted on GfK Australia's site, and the chart posted on Gamespot's site. I thought it was weird that WoW WoLK wasn't even in the top ten, so I'm inclined to think the chart published on Gamespot is actually the correct one. Australia's blushes saved ... maybe.
Aussie game charts: November 10-16
World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King takes hold of the game charts down under.
With more than 700 people lining up at midnight at just one of the many stores that stayed open late for launches last week, it should come as no surprise to see that World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King took out the number one spot down under, according to data trackers GfK Australia.
There were a lot of newcomers to the charts last week, with Wii Music taking out the second spot for the week of November 10-16. Interestingly, Wii Music outsold Guitar Hero World Tour, the other big music game to be released during that week. Call of Duty: World at War for the Xbox 360 has laid claim to third place, while the PS3 version took out the fourth spot. Gears of War 2 fell down from being the previous number one to the current number five. The Guitar Hero World Tour "super" bundle has taken out several slots in last week's charts, with the Wii version being the highest ranked in sixth place. The 360 and PS3 versions ports of the game are in the lower half of the chart, in ninth and 10th spots, respectively. Wii Fit has managed to hold on to the seventh position for another week, but the same couldn't be said for the Wii Play and Wiimote bundle, dropping to number eight.
