US software sales: Call of Duty 4 and Super Mario Galaxy top charts, PSP shines

Recommended Videos

This week, Nintendo’s Super Mario Galaxy dominates, Call of Duty 4 makes a big splash, and people seem to be getting their Rock Band preorders squared away.

Call of Duty 4 is overall the best selling title this week, singlehandedly taking the No. 1 spot on the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. Its only real competition this week is Super Mario Galaxy, which managed to take No.1 overall despite the fact that it isn’t even available yet.

Even though Guitar Hero III rocked the charts last week, it has fallen out of the top ten, and it seems that Rock Band has moved in to take its place. Aside from being No. 3 overall, Rock Band Special Edition has also taken the No. 2 spot on the top ten list for both PS3 and Xbox 360, as well as No. 3 on the PS2. 

Lastly, the PSP top ten list mirrors a recent Destructoid inter-office discussion about the system. The portable seems to have several good releases in its lineup lately, and this week in particular puts titles like Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions, Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles, Silent Hill: Origins, and Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness at the top. This is great news for PSP owners — let’s hope that the trend continues.

Hit the jump for all of the lists.
