Halo: Reach nearly doubled its chatter this week, managing to remain on top of the UK Top Sellers Buzz chart with 41,926 mentions (though this rise was partly down to improved Brandwatch Twitter tracking). Dead Rising 2 also retains its number two spot with 10,482 mentions, while Fifa 11 debuts at number three with 9687.
Halo: Reach again enjoys the most positive comments, with 51 per cent, while Fifa 11 matches Civilization V's 41 per cent. F1 2010, which amassed the fourth most comments last week, plummets to number ten, its positive split dropping to 27 per cent.
And in a similar move, F1 2010 also receives the most negative commentary, shooting from 9 per cent last week to 35 per cent - more than double second place Halo: Reach's 15 per cent.
