Star Wars becomes UK's first #1 Kinect title
Licence boots platform exclusive to top spot despite poor reviews
Published on
Star Wars Kinect has become the first Kinect exclusive to top the UK all format chart, heading up a top five otherwise dominated by Electronic Arts.
The title, with a 55 per cent Metacritic rating, was available with a special R2-D2 themed Xbox 360 and Kinect bundle as well as a solus version. The LucasArts game knocks three week champion FIFA Street from the top spot, above Mass Effect 3, FIFA 12, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13.
CoD 3 occupies sixth place before EA lands another blow at seventh with SSX. Mario and Sonic at the London Olympics, Battlefield 3 and Skyrim complete the top ten. Capcom's Devil May Cry HD collection only manages 18th on its debut.
