GameFly Rental Chart Highlights: Week Ending September 19

This week's GameFly video game rental charts for North America, specifically relating to games rented via the games-by-mail service for the week ending September 19th, show popularity over multiple game formats. Burnout fever has hit gamingdom once again, which could become a yearly occurrence now that the franchise is in the hard-driving hands of EA. Burnout Revenge has debuted at the top of the all-format rental charts, ahead of Darkwatch at #2 and Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction at #3 -- and its portable cousin Burnout Legends for PSP slipped in just under the wire at #4. Burnout Revenge was also #1 on both of the platforms it came out on. On the Xbox, it leapfrogged Darkwatch and Incredible Hulk at #2 and #3, just like on the all-format chart; the lineup was similar on the PlayStation 2 charts, but with God of War still popular enough to replace Darkwatch at #2. One chart that had no sign of Burnout was the GameCube's: Mario Superstar Baseball is still the leading rental on Nintendo's console for another week. Geist maintains its position at #2, and Incredible Hulk has now displaced WWE Day of Reckoning in third place. The Game Boy Advance, equally Burnout free, was untroubled by any changes this week as the same lineup recorred yet again: Dragon Ball GT: Transformation at #1, Pokémon Emerald at #2, and Zelda: The Minish Cap at #3. On the PSP, which did get a little bit of Burnout, the new champion is Burnout Legends, ahead of MediEvil Resurrection at #2 and Death Jr. at #3. Over on the DS, this week's Nintendogs/Advance Wars configuration goes like this: Advance Wars: Dual Strike at #1, Nintendogs: Lab & Friends at #2, and Nintendogs: Chihuahua and Friends at #3.
