UK chart: COD batters competition

Update: Number cruncher GfK Chart-Track has explained to Eurogamer why sales of Kinect Adventures - the game the Kinect camera is bundled with - haven't been included.

Microsoft's view on this is that the Sensor sells for £129.99 and that Adventures will not be sold separately - it is a pack-in product," Chart-Track's Dorian Bloch revealed.

This is similar to Wii Sports, which was never tracked as a software item as it was never available as a solus product - only with hardware.

Original story: Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops has, predictably, obliterated all challengers in the UK all-formats chart.

This outcome was all but written last week when we heard that Black Ops had recorded the biggest day-one sales of any game ever released in UK.

A whopping 1.4 million copies of the Vietnam War game were sold in just 24 hours here.

Treyarch's shooter is top, then, and a majority 56 per cent of copies were sold on Xbox 360.

FIFA is second, Just Dance 2 third and the first Kinect newcomer Kinect Sports fourth.

Football Manager 2011 is fifth, Professor Layton and the Lost Future sixth and Fallout: New Vegas seventh.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii, The Sims 3 and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II rounded out the top 10.

There's no sign of the Kinect hardware-bundled game Kinect Adventures. The rest of the Kinect slate performed like this: Dance Central is 13th, MotionSports 15th, Fighters Uncaged 23rd, Kinectimals 26th, Kinect Joy Ride 30th, Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 33rd and Sonic Free Riders 38th.

Remember, Eurogamer's review of the Kinect hardware and the launch line-up of games can be found on the homepage right now.

Sonic Colours had a disappointing first week way down in 36th. Fable III fell rapidly this week from third to 16th. Lionhead's game lead the UK all-formats chart two weeks ago.
