Valve and EA's first-person puzzler Portal 2 held onto the top spot in the UK retail software sales charts for the second week in a row, in a week when there were no new releases in the top 10, UK tracking firm Chart-Track confirmed Tuesday. For the week ended April 30, Warner Bros.' Mortal Kombat also held strong, keeping its number two spot, while Pipeworks and 505 Games' Zumba Fitness climbed one place to position three. The fitness game has not yet dropped out of the top five since its release in November 2010. A continued price promotion on Call of Duty: Black Ops saw the best-selling shooter stay in the top 10, sitting firmly at number five. Elsewhere, the likes of Wii Fit Plus, Homefront and FIFA 11 held steady. The only re-entry into the top ten this week is Ubisoft's dancing title Just Dance 2, which jumped back into the charts at number 10. Below are Chart-Track's all-platforms sales charts, which include unit sales of all versions of a given title, and the individual platform charts, which treat individual SKUs separately.
