O2 mobile game download charts and new releases: October 5th
Sonic spins to the top of the charts and six new arrivals led by Crash of the Titans promise to mix things up
Hello and welcome to an especially late version of the weekly O2 download charts. Due to some technical troubles, last Friday's update is five days behind schedule – our apologies.
It's been worth waiting for, though, if only to finally see some movement in the overall positions, not least the slippage of Deal or No Deal from the top spot in favour of Sonic The Hedgehog. With Tetris Mania also sliding several paces down to fifth, we've got our fingers crossed it's the start of some major change.
The introduction of no less than six new arrivals should hopefully help speed this along, especially as the newcomers include such heavyweights as Crash of the Titans and Pyramid Bloxx, alongside dark horses like Real Football Manager, Common Knowledge Quiz, Scooby Doo and Sega's Puzzle Pack.
Is this really the start of a fresh, mixed-up chart packed with fresh faces? For once, you don't have to wait until next week to find out as we'll be back in two days' time!
Until then, all the games below are available to buy via the O2 games portal, or by texting the short code from a compatible O2 handset.
