Rankings Based on EB Games figures from 4/4/05 to 4/11/05
1. Doom 3 - Xbox 2. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Chaos Theory - Xbox 3. God of War - PS2 4. Lego Star Wars - Xbox 5. Dynasty Warriors 5 - PS2 6. Close Combat: First to Fight - Xbox 7. Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga - PS2 8. MVP Baseball 2005 - PS2 9. Lego Star Wars - PS2 10. Tekken 5 - PS2
Hardly a shocking result this week. I think it was rather obvious Doom 3 would take top spot, while the excellent SC:CT lies below. Nice to see Xbox back in control, but its a shame that this chart hasnt seen a GC game in a while. As for the next week or so, i expect it to remain rather similar apart from a new #1 which i predict to be Jade Empire for Xbox. IGN have given that game a 9.9/10 and classed it the best RPG on Xbox. Seems like BioWare have out done themselves again.

Yeah, I saw that review for Jade Empire. Although I'm a little dismayed that it only runs 22 hours.

It will probably be more like 30-35 hours for in depth players. ;D ANd here's another review of Jade Empire ;D consolegold.com/Reviews/review/375.html

I must say Gamepsot have really gone down in my opinion as a respectable site. They have simply turned to PS2 fanboys. It seems that no matter how good an Xbox or GC game is, they unfairly give it a lower score. An recent example of this is with Splinter Cell:Chaos Theory, Doom 3 and now Jade Empire. Every respectable site i vist have given these 3 games all over 9/10, but not Gamespot, no, they must seek attention and draw in readers by publishing controversial reviews. They gave SC:CT 8.6/10, Doom 3 8.6/10 and now they have given Jade Empire 8.4/10. All 3 of these games really sell the Xbox system and Gamespot have taken a dig at them. I wouldnt be surprised if Gamespot had given these titles higher scores if they were PS2 exclusive... They described Jade Empire as basically KOTOR but with martial arts... They said the loading times are too long for a system as capable as Xbox, and the cameras dodgey... I wish Gamespot would jump off the Sony bandwagon and review scores fairly instead of being biased towards Sony and seeking attention with controversial reviews. From now on i doubt i will take any notice of Gamespot reviews as they have lost all credability with me.

Yea Gamespot can be pretty tough on games; and that is pretty retarded that they've been against x-box.
