Activision is having problems with Courtney Love over the use of Kurt Cobain in Guitar Hero 5, but that’s not slowing down game sales. Guitar Hero 5 entered the UK game sales charts for last week in first place. Colin Mcrae: Dirt 2 took second place while The Beatles: Rock Band took fourth. All three are new to the chart pushing down Batman: Arkham Asylum to third spot and Wii Fit to the fifth spot.

Call of Duty: World at War made the biggest shift downward moving from 8 to 14 on the charts. Last week the title skyrocketed, but it looks to be normalizing out now.

Nintendo takes the top publisher spot with four titles. Other publishers have three or fewer games in the top 20.
