O2 mobile game download charts and new releases: June 8th
Shrek 3 storms into the charts, Noel slips down, and Subbuteo waits in the wings
Three seems to be the magic number this summer, with a succession of blockbuster threquels packing our cinemas.
Hence it's only fitting that Gameloft's mobile game Shrek 3 should shoot into the table at, yes you've guessed it, number three.
With World Championship Poker also dealing its way up a few places, it looks like the end might finally be in sight for Noel Edmonds, whose Deal or No Deal drops to five.
Of course he's a resilient old pro and dropping out of the top 10 doesn't necessarily mean the game is up, as EA's FIFA 07 has ably proved, shooting back into seventh place in the table with its newly reduced price tag.
Will Selatra Games' Subbuteo also be able to chip in to the charts? Can the third installment of Metal Slug fire all the way to the top three? Come back this way next week to find out!
As usual, all the games below are available to buy via the O2 games portal, or by texting the shortcode (where supplied) from a compatible O2 handset.
