There seems to be only one thing that can beat out soccer in the UK and it’s war. That’s right Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 took the number one spot in the UK sales charts. Not too surprising, since we got the first day sales back last week that were at $310 million. What’s unique is that Call of Duty fans must have wanted even more Call of Duty as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare made it’s way onto the countdown in the 19th spot.

Nintendo held it’s own with Wii Sports Report moving up to number 2. FIFA 10 went down to number 3 and the other soccer game…Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 is at 11 while Football Manager 2010 is at 12. Quite a drop.

Dragon Age: Origins also had a huge fall from 5 to 13.

Nintendo barely holds onto the top spot with 4 games in the countdown.

Nothing seemed able to knock football out of the top spots of the UK Game Sales Charts, but two Nintendo titles pushed them down. Wii Fit Plus is now at the top spot after being at number 2 pushing Football Manager 2010 to 4th spot. While Wii Sports Resort blasted up from 10 to the third spot. Putting FIFA 10 at the second spot.

Dragon Age: Origins enters at number 5 and Tekken 6 drops two to number 10. Mario Kart Wii enters out of nowhere and Borderlands takes a huge drop from 9 to 15.

Nintendo has six titles in the top 20 for UK Sales. Using the revival of old titles like Wii Fit, Mario Kart Wii and Super Smash Bros: Brawl.

It looks like UK Gamers enjoy their “football” (soccer). Enjoy might be putting it lightly. They enjoy it so much that they also seem to love any video game that is on that subject matter. For about a month, the top spot in the UK Game Sales charts has been taken by a football game.

First it was Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 (now at 5), then it was FIFA 10 (3) and now SEGA moves into the top spot with Football Manager 2010. How can one play so many soccer games?

Tekken 6 enters the countdown at 8 and Wii Fit Plus enters in the number 2 spot. DJ Hero enters at number 20, which could be due to the cost. It also appears that our European friends have Eyepet already which enters at 18.

Both WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 (11) and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (12) dropped six places. Making these titles the biggest drop on the countdown.

The countdown stays varied but Nintendo wins the publisher spot with 5 games on the countdown.
