The PS3-exclusive first-person shooter topped Microsoft's Xbox 360 real-time strategy game Halo Wars last week in the U.K. The two titles claimed the number one and two positions, respectively.
U.K. firm Chart-Track said that Killzone 2's top placement is the first Sony-published all formats number one in almost two years. April 2007's God of War II for PS2 was the last time a Sony game topped the U.K. charts.
The new releases pushed Capcom's Street Fighter IV down to number three, with sales dropping 49 percent following its debut a week earlier at number one. Wii Fit dropped to the fourth slot.
Halo Wars outsold the next fastest-selling Xbox 360 real-time strategy game, Command & Conquer Tiberium Wars by almost three to one, Chart-Track said.
Below are the top ten games in the U.K. for the week ended February 28:
- Killzone 2
- Halo Wars
- Street Fighter IV
- Wii Fit
- Professor Layton and the Curious Village
- Sega Mega Drive Ultimate Collection
- FIFA 09
- Call of Duty: World at War
