Sony’s ‘LittleBigPlanet 2’ slays the mighty goliath that is ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops’ to debut at No1.

Developed by UK studio Media Molecule, ‘LittleBigPlanet 2’ is the first in the franchise to achieve top spot in the All Formats Chart. The original PS3 game which launched to much acclaim back in week 45 2008 could only manage No4. Launch week sales of the first and second LittleBigPlanet games are almost identical with the latest game only 95 sales short of the original. ‘Black Ops’ (-15%) has to settle for No2, ahead of ‘Just Dance 2’ (-19%) which is a non-mover at No3. ‘FIFA 11’ (-25%) remains EA’s top selling title this week, despite dropping two places to No4. The launch of EA’s ‘Mass Effect 2’ (+462%) on PS3 can’t propel it ahead of FIFA as it re-enters the Top 40 at No7. Competitive retailer pricing on ‘Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood’ (+22%) help push it up two places to No5, while the post Christmas fitness drive shows signs of flagging with ‘Wii Fit Plus’ (-28%) down two places to No6.

The Top 10 is rounded off with ‘Kinect Sports’ (-27%) down three places to No8, ‘Gran Turismo 5’ (-30%) down one place to No9 and ‘Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit’ (-35%) dropping four places to No10.

Wow LBP2. Can`t wait for it to arrive, my first experience with this franchise.

Kafel said:
Kinect Sports holding well. MS should advertise fitness games now though.
Sports is awesome but Dance Central sales are a bit disappointing, I expected it to be the best selling Kinect game.
 
I tried buying LBP2 in a games store in The Netherlands and the guy behind the counter told me Sony only shipped 4 (four!) copies to his store, with a later shipment sometime next week. Did anyone manage to get a copy?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Surprisingly high debut for ME2 PS3.

GoldenEye has some legs.

I wish we had some numbers for even one of the top ten titles, because I don't think they are that high.
#5 COD360 ~12k
#11 CODPS3 ~8k

All formats #2 COD ~23k. Extrapolated from week 1 sales and w/o/w percentage changes.
 
So that gives us something like...

PS3 Littlebigplanet 2 > 23k

WII Just Dance 2 > 12k / < 23k
WII Wii Fit Plus > 12k / < 23k
PS3 Mass Effect 2 > 12k / < 23k

360 Kinect Sports > 8k / < 12k
360 AssCreedBro > 8k / < 12k
PS3 Gran Turismo 5 > 8k / < 12k
WII Just Dance > 8k / < 12k
360 Fifa 11 > 8k / < 12k

I agree and share your sentiments.

It is one thing to say game x and y did better than the rest this week. It is another thing to use the relative position to claim that they are doing well when we look at overall performance of a game.

THE WORDS! They'll drift away without the _!
Does looking back at week 45 2008 give us a better idea of what LBP2 may have sold?

LBP opened at number 2 behind GeOW2. It was 4th on the all formats.

Does anyone know if we were ever able to guesstimate after that?
 
Dissapointing LBP2 numbers. I expected much higher after reading MM's tweets about destroying simultaneous users logged in at once records the first game set.

Unfortunately no.

We know it sold >100k aftter 3 weeks, but that does not help much.

LBP went #2 > #12 > #19 on the chart, but we do not have the % drop, so we cannot guess the first week number.

Yeah, why the PS3 software surge ?
The PS3 was the only platform this week with notable software releases.

Given that, my guess would be that PS3 owners who went to buy LittleBigPlanet 2 or Mass Effect 2 also picked up some cheap games while they were at the store.

Since no other platforms had big releases this week, their software didn't get a similar effect.

That or a retailer had a sale on budget re-release PS3 titles.

This is a reasonable explanation. But the quantities shifted were probably huge, DKCR has been simply kicked out of the top 10 and it was #3 last week.

Hope we get some WW numbers on LBP2 soon, it'll be interesting. That is a game where sales actually affect me as an owner.

Milan's retirement home looks pretty comfy. I am disappointed he left though.

UK charts: Dead Space 2 at top
Despite an alluring PS3 bundle - with Dead Space: Extraction thrown in for free - it was the Xbox 360 version with the lion's share of sales: 56 per cent. The PS3 commanded only 40 per cent (the PC filled the remaining 4 per cent).

LittleBigPlanet 2 proved popular to hold on at two, followed by football stalwart FIFA 11 at three, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood in four and Call of Duty: Black Ops at five.
