What was it that Kliq said........... ahh yes, *points at GCN and laughs*



Splinter Cell has sneaked past Champ Manager 4's defence to hit the number one spot in the UK All-Formats chart, compiled by ChartTrack. Blimey, it's exciting stuff, just like the race for the Premiership...

The release of the PS2 version of Ubi Soft's sneak-'em-up Splinter Cell sees it take the number one spot from Champ Manager 4 this week, following its previous outings at top spot with the Xbox and PC versions.

Reaffirming its seemingly resident position in the highest regions of the chart is the evergreen The Sims, clinging onto a top three spot despite another fresh new PS2 entry from Sony's Primal.

Elsewhere, Xbox hardware sales have soared in the UK - something to do with the recent price drop we think - while 'Cube melted away somewhat from its recent success, shifting considerable less than half the number Xbox achieved.

Expectedly, sales of SP feel by almost half of the previous week's total (which was launch week), but the handheld still manged to shift over 10,000 units. More surprisingly, sales of the old style Game Boy Advance rose slightly, despite the availability of its flashy new cousin. Finally, PS2 remained strong, leading the field with a slight rise.

So what Microsoft STILL isn't making as much money as Nintendo. Put it this way, GBA SP already outsold all of these consoles.
