Toy Story claimed a 3rd week at no 1 on Chart Track’s UK Software Sales chart this week, despite its sales dropping by 17% from last week. Three weeks at no 1 is a new record of success for a Disney published title. Meanwhile, Modern Warfare 2 is just one week away from overtaking Nintendo’s Brain Training and becoming the highest selling game ever in the UK, landing at 8 this week (down from 2 last week).

To the absolute surprise of no-one, Blizzard Entertainment’s StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty has this week debuted at No. 1 on Chart Track’s UK Software Sales chart, no doubt effortlessly knocking last week’s chart topper, Toy Story 3, off of its perch.

Chart Track says that the new Xbox 360 recorded over two days of sales comparable to the launch of the original Xbox 360 in late 2005, which the sales tracking firm notes is quite a feat considering the original console launched in two flavours – the Pro and Core.
