  • PSP GO Back To $200, We Wonder Why?

    3 5 11 pspgo 150 1299350539 PSP GO Back To $200, We Wonder Why?

    We previously reported the PSP GO’s $50 price drop which knocked it down to a very competitive $150 just $20 more than the PSP 3000 which also got a price drop a few weeks ago. We knew the news was too good to be true and it seems it was, Sony’s official website is now displaying the old $199.99 price tag again. There’s no evidence left at all that there was ever a price drop. So if you’re planning to buy a PSP in the future then the PSP 3000 at a meager price of $130 is a no-brainer right now, and don’t forget to buy some good ol’ UMDs while you’re there.

  • UK Is Crazy For Fitness, Transformers 3 Video Game Is Not A Bust

    This week Zumba Fitness: Join the Party was released for Xbox 360 and Wii. It sold the most copies this week to claim the top spot in the UK sales chart.

    Dirt 3 showed a much needed love and support as it jumped 2 places up from 4th place to 2nd place this week. While Transformers: Dark of the Moon movie was creating big explosions throughout the world, its video game was also nothing short of success and managed to sell enough copies to claim the 3rd spot behind Dirt 3.

    In the 4th and 5th places, Lego: Pirates of the Caribbean and L.A Noire clanged to their spots. L.A Noire is showing some good legs even though it was released in May. It is still selling extremely well which is good news for its publisher Rockstar. Lego games mostly have good legs so Lego: Pirates of the Caribbean still selling well was no surpirse.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops had the most impressive jump today and went 10 places up from 17th to 7th place. What was more surprising was the sales of Brink which was a critical failure. It received a lot of negative review but despite this all it is still in the top ten video games at 8th place.

    The rest of the top 10 video games chart is shown below:-

    • Zumba Fitness: Join the Party
    • Dirt 3
    • Transformers: Dark of the Moon
    • Lego: Pirates of the Caribbean
    • L.A Noire
    • Virtua Tennis 4
