Seems like 2011 is getting to a predictable start, with New Year fitness populating the UK Video Game Chart - be it in virtual sports like FIFA 11's continuing reign on the Top 10, or in active games like Ubisoft's Just Dance 2 or Nintendo's Wii Fit Plus.
{1} - 1 - FIFA 11 - EA
{3} - 2 - Just Dance 2 - Ubisoft
{2} - 3 - Call of Duty Black Ops - Activision/Blizzard
{3} - 4 - Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit - EA
{RE} - 5 - Wii Fit Plus - Nintendo
{5} - 6 - Assassin's Creed Brotherhood - Ubisoft
{7} - 7 - Gran Turismo 5 - Sony
{9} - 8 - Fallout: New Vegas - Bethesda
{8} - 9 - The Sims 3 - EA
{6} - 10 - Kinect Sports - Microsoft
Treyarch's Call of Duty: Black Ops has conceded defeat to the hot-stepping Wii sequel, taking third place while Just Dance 2 scooches to #2. Wii Fit Plus makes a dramatic re-entry to #5, a jump of eight places. Kinect Sports falls several place to #10 this week, but no doubt gamers are still getting their dose of exercise from it.
As expected, the rest of the chart consists of last year's big sellers. With new games in Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective and Kingdom Hearts coded launching this week, that might change.
