MySims continues to Sims mania...

Super Paper Mario hit hard and fast last week in the UK chart, but this week with EA releasing the highly anticipated exclusive 'MySims' for both DS and Wii, does it mean Mario will be overlooked? And what about the other big-name titles that have hit recently; how are the likes of Bioshock, Heavenly Sword and Tiger Woods 08 doing?

Starting off on the All Prices Top 40, where we see the performance of budget-priced games, Wii Play shows no signs of dying, as it holds strong at No.5 for yet another week.

Paper Mario is doing amazingly well, far better than the N64 game and MILES better than the GameCube edition...Hopefully it means when a true Paper Mario RPG comes out next it'll get more recognition.

Shame to see Heroes of Mana and Tingle missing out for a second week running Smilie

Paper Mario Numero Uno, I said last week I thought it would happen.

I wonder what will be No.1 next week?

I think MySims on the DS will go even higher next week...so maybe it can go all the way?

Race Driver's out on DS this Friday...it's REALLY good, so I'm hoping it performs well.

Oh yeah, forgot about Halo 3... Smilie Oh well, everything else is pretty much screwed then if the US one-day launch numbers are anything to go by!

Interesting thing about Halo 3 is that in Japan, consumers were rushing out to pick the game up...along with a Wii console! Seems Bungie's game has roused interest in Wii again Smilie

How odd, Halo 3 and a Wii.

FIFA 08 is also out next week, so we can be sure of what's will be No.1 and No.2 spot in Monday's chart showings.
