UK Video Game Chart: The Christmas Number One is...
As expected, Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops has been confirmed as the UK's number one video game this Christmas. It remains at the top of the UK Top 40 ahead of EA's FIFA 11 and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit.

{1} - 1 - Call of Duty: Black Ops - Activision
{2} - 2 - FIFA 11 - EA
{7} - 3 - Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit - EA
{6} - 4 - Just Dance 2 - Ubisoft
{4} - 5 - Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood - Ubisoft
{5} - 6 - Gran Turismo 5 - Sony
{8} - 7 - Donkey Kong Country Returns - Nintendo
{RE} - 8 - Medal of Honor - EA
{10} - 9 - Wii Fit Plus - Nintendo
{9} - 10 - Professor Layton and the Lost Future - Nintendo

(Last week's position in brackets)

Besides the top two non-movers, the only surprise in the Top 10 this week was the re-emergence of EA's Medal of Honor reboot, tactically advancing its position to #8. Hot Pursuit saw the second-biggest jump, racing from last week's #7 position to challenge its football cousin.

Wii Fit climbs the chart as well - UKIE notes that the Nintendo balance board game, Modern Warfare 2 and now Call of Duty: Black Ops are the only three titles to top the £100 million revenue mark in the UK. 11 million video games were sold in the country in the last four weeks, generating over £290 million.
