Statistics aplenty for Bungie to digest following the release of Halo 2 just under a week ago in the UK, with the news that it has shifted over 260’000 copies of the FPS title in a week.

This has meant that the game enters the top 3 position in the fastest selling titles of all-time in the UK, behind Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (1st) and Vice City (2nd),and has managed to push The Getaway off it’s third place.

Halo 2 has managed to knock the West Coast escapades of CJ and the Orange Grove Gang off the top position in this week’s charts however, which should please Master Chief and the others at Bungie, especially since the figures mean that around 17% of all UK Xbox owners now own a copy of the game.

We’ll have more on Halo 2, especially with regards to the TVG Nation Clan on Xbox Live!, shortly…
