Sony's PlayStation 2 sequel God of War II has taken the top two spots in the Spanish all-formats charts, while also recording strong sales in Italy.
Both the standard edition and the Special Edition of the game are performing well, proving there's still plenty of life in Sony's current-gen home console.
Other successes in the Spanish market include Activision's Spider-Man 3 and the budget and platinum release of Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer 6.
The Italian charts show a lot of similarity to Spain, but also a new entry for Black Bean Games' SBK 07: Superbike World Championship.
