Why?!? Just… why??? I mean, I know last week was pretty barren on the new releases front but surely not enough to resort to the frenzied purchasing of Just Dance that seems to have taken over the country??
(Other) surprises this week include God of War III and Final Fantasy XIII dropping 7 places each to no.14 and no.15, respectively. Heavy Rain is making a valiant effort to hang in there, taking the no.20 position.

I don’t which is worse. Just Dance taking over the UK, or Pokemon Heart Gold/ Soul Silver Version taking over the US….for the third week in a row.
I know! How are these titles outselling all of the awesome March releases? O_o
I think it may be because they can appeal to both hardcore gamers, as well as the everyday person just looking for something fun to play. Whereas many of the other games are more appealing to just gamers. But that’s just my theory.
