News: Halo 3: ODST takes number 1 in UK chart

Halo 3: ODST has debuted at number one in the UK chart exactly two years after Halo 3 achieved the same feat.

The title, released on September 22, saw enough demand that 64 per cent of its week one sell-through was achieved in the first 24 hours. Its sales make it the twelfth biggest single format week one seller to date – although it’s some way behind Helo 3, which is currently ranked at number four, after GTA: San Andreas on PS2, GTA IV on Xbox 360 and GTA IV on PlayStation 3 respectively.

Elsewhere in the chart, another new entry, Professor Layton and Pandora’s Box, entered at number two, pushing last week’s number one, Need for Speed: Shift, to number three, despite the EA title attaining a seven per cent sales rise.
