This week's top rental charts from U.S. game rental company GameFly, representing the most requested games for the week ending January 21st, highlight both to-be-released and already released games in a unique demand-specific chart. Burnout Paradise speeds into the top spot after spending last week at number three, displacing three-week leader Kingdom Under Fire: Circle Of Doom, which tumbles all the way down to tenth place. It's a completely new top five as longtime mainstays Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare drop out of contention, while Mass Effect finally fails to chart at all in the top 10. Capcom's Devil May Cry 4, slated to release February 5th, makes the top five twice -- the Xbox 360 SKU in second position, and the PS3 SKU in fourth. In between them, holding the third spot, is the Xbox 360 SKU of Turok, while No More Heroes enters the charts in fifth. The individual rental charts for Xbox 360 usually mirror the all-platform charts, but with No More Heroes and Devil May Cry 4 shaking things up, there's still a place for Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty 4 there. What follows is a breakdown of the top titles requested by GameFly subscribers across each of the major platforms: Xbox 360 1. Burnout Paradise (Electronic Arts) 2. Devil May Cry 4 (Capcom) 3. Turok (Touchstone) 4. Assassin's Creed (Ubisoft) 5. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (Activision) Nintendo Wii 1. No More Heroes (Ubisoft) 2. Super Mario Galaxy (Nintendo) 3.
