With no new game releases yet in the UK this year, the sales chart have seen little movement from the previous weeks, with no new sales campaigns to stimulate change either. There have been a few re-entries outside of the top ten, though, with From Russia With Love returning at number twenty-four after a disappointing performance last year. More notable is the re-entry of Project Gotham Racing 3 at number thirty-four, signifying the slowly improving availability of the Xbox 360 in the UK. It remains the only exclusive Xbox 360 in the charts, though, with the trickle of new consoles since Christmas still falling well short of fulfilling demand for Microsoft’s new console.
