The Charts: Pro Evo versus FIFA: Injury Time Score
Konami does a little celebratory dance today, following the news of PES 2008’s second week at the top of the All Formats Video Game Chart, shifting over twice the amount of copies as EA’s rival FIFA ’08, which sits at No.2 this week.

EA's The Simpsons Game debuts at No.3 – with healthiest sales on PS2. THQ’s movie cash/tie-in, Ratatouille (see how we don't spell it out phonetically for you, as if you were some kind of in-bred, cow-worrier?) crawls up a place to No.4. Bungie’s awesome Halo 3, clambers back up to No.5 on the back of some strong retailer bundles. Don't think it's that awesome? Read our review, right over here.

New releases this week include Sierra's twitch-shooter TimeShift at No.24 and EA's PC bleakly, well, bleak Hellgate: London at No.34.

Next week is when things really start to heat up in the run-up to Christmas 2007 with the releases of Call of Duty 4, WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008, Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction and Gears of War on PC. Watch out for SPOnG's recent interview with Epic's Cliffy B on that last title later this very week.

Place your bets on this Xmas's Number One game with Paddy Power – see SPOnG’s earlier news if you fancy a punt.
