UK software sales chart, Nov. 5-11: The Brits dig GTA

Despite falling one spot from last week, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories is the top handheld in the United Kingdom for the second week in a row. Now, If there's one PSP franchise that's guaranteed to have massive success, it's gotta be Grand Theft Auto.

Need for Speed Carbon (PS2)
WWE Smackdown! vs. Raw 2007 (PS2)
Call of Duty 3 (PS2)
Pro Evolution Soccer 6 (Xbox 360)
FIFA 07 (PS2)
The Sims 2: Pets (PC)
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories (PSP)
LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (PS2)
Medieval 2: Total War (PC)
Bully (PS2)

I find it very interesting to look at the software charts from the three major regions. While the Japanese seem to exclusively play the DS, the Brits have more broader tastes in their games and systems. Now that Vice City Stories has been out in the UK for a couple weeks, it will be interesting to see if it can maintain its sales figures.
