UK game charts, GTA IV stands firm

The Feedster

GTA 4 remains top of this week’s UK Chartrack Top 40, whileNintendo’s Wii Fit drops off the chart and EA’s costly Rock Band limps into thetop ten at number six.
Nintendo assures TechRadar that plenty more Wii Fit stock is being shipped to retail, with a rep expressing some dismay at the fact that the Japanese gaming giant was, yet again, unable to meet rampant demand for its latest must-have Wii game/fitness technology.
Rock Band price slashed
Retailers are already slashing the cost of EA’sover-priced Rock Band, with Play.com knocking £40 off the RRP – with thetotal game and instruments package nowcosting £140
Three quarters of all people who purchased Rock Band(unsurprisingly) also bought the instrument controller bundle. Well, itwouldn’t be much fun without it, really…
Age of Conan MMO
Funcom and Eidos' Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures is a new entry at numbertwo – the biggest PC game of 2008 to date, though there are already reports ofgamers experiencing problemswith the game.
Ubisoft and Free Radical’s massively hyped Haze only makes it into the chartat number three, following mixed reviews.
