The latest ChartTrack data has confirmed that Resident Evil 5 is sitting pretty at the top of the UK All Format Charts for the third consecutive week, beating out the ubiquitous Wii Fit in the process.

Released on March 13, the action horror sequel reacquaints gamers with veteran zombie slayer Chris Redfield as he teams up with newcomer Sheva Alomar in the African region of Kijuju to investigate the latest bio-terrorism threat.

The game has already turned in a solid performance around the globe, with the Japanese PlayStation 3 version of the title recently surpassing the 400,000 mark.

See below for a full round up of the UK Charts ended March 28.

1. Resident Evil 5 (Capcom)
2. Wii Fit (Nintendo)
3. Street Fighter IV (Capcom)
4. Professor Layton and the Curious Village (Nintendo)
5. WWE Legends of Wrestlemania (THQ)
6. FIFA 09 (EA)

8. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (Rockstar)

    the game is awesome and has a huge replay value e.g. mercs mode

    even the mercs mode is not so exciting.....im not saying the game sucks....but it should be a big hit....its just like RE4 with better graphics....look at MGS4 this game is more than great...i expected RE to be the same but  no....though im a big fan for RE...but i should say the truth...
