Gran Turismo 5: Prologue has managed to do what other great releases haven't been able to do since February: bump off Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games from top spot in the UK for more than two weeks.
Mario & Sonic's been leading the charge for two months now, only being bumped off now and again when a major game has been released, like Army of Two and Devil May Cry 4, but they've never been able to keep top spot for more than a week.
Also of note is Condemned 2: Bloodshot (360, PS3), which debuted at fifth place, and Dark Sector (360, PS3), which entered at 11th. Here are the rest of the top games in the UK for the week ending on April 5:
1. Gran Turismo 5: Prologue
2. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
3. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas 2
4. Pro Evolution Soccer 2008

The friendly folks over at Razer recently sent us their full size Kishi Ultra mobile gaming controller, and this thing didn't disappoint.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
The Epic Games Store continues to dish out free games and you can add two more to your library this week.
Under-rated when it comes to system sellers.(killer app)
the 'check hook' comes later in the form of MGS4;)
Well this is unsurprising.
Get onboard! Next stop MGS4, only on Playstation 3.
Not surprised.
hmm well considering that GT5p sales was only compiled for 2 days last week.....
This shouldn't be a shocker !
