Need for Speed Pro Street tipped to be #1 in UK this Holiday

by James MitchellNovember 5, 2007

This Christmas the number one game in the UK has already been chosen according to analysts . Need for Speed: Prostreet is billed to claim the top spot on the evens, with other favourites such as FIFA 08 at 2-1, Halo 3 at 6-1 and Pro Evo Soccer 2008 at 10-1. Other titles that are worth noting on the list are The Simpsons Game, COD4: Modern Warfare, While most people are unlikely to bet against any of these games hitting the #1 on the Christmas lists, there are several games that are worthy enough to garner out attention. More inside Additionally, in a surprise move, Manhunt 2 has gained a listing of 25-1, despite the game being banned in the UK and thus unavailable to many. Something interesting to note is also the fact that the main contenders for the #1 position are games designed for traditional gamers, including Super Mario Galaxy, despite the Wii’s philosophy to cater for non-traditional gamers (and thus being at the top in terms of sales of units).
