Activision Blizzard’s Prototype has taken the top spot on the UK all formats chart in its second week of release, driven by sales of the Xbox 360 version.

The action title rose one position to displace The Sims 3, which had held the number one spot for the previous two weeks.

Wii Fit jumped back into the top three, while Ghostbusters: The Videogame entered at number four. The PS3 version of the Sony published title generated 98 percent of weekly sales, while the PS2 edition accounted for the remainder.

Call of Duty: World At War moved up two spots to fifth, ahead of THQ’s Red Faction: Guerilla and UFC 2009: Undisputed.

EA Sports Active charted in eighth, while Virtua Tennis 2009 moved up two places to number nine, aided by the release of the Wii MotionPlus compatible version. With Wimbledon starting this week, Grand Slam Tennis was up three spots to tenth.

Indiana Jones And The Staff Of Kings enjoyed a strong second week, leaping from number 32 to 13, while 505 Games’ Arma II debuted at 19.
