Aussie Charts: Beatles Say Goodbye, Guitar Hero Says Hello

The Beatles: Rock Band occupied three positions in last week’s chart. This week: none. In their place we find a couple of Guitar Hero Vs instead.

Perhaps those reported supply problems were a little more severe than first thought.

Interesting to note that while the charting 360 and PS3 versions of Guitar Hero V were the disc-only, the full band bundle actually sold better than the disc-only on the Wii. Can we conclude that the market for music games on Wii is still growing, while other console owners are drowning in plastic instruments?

Also, Need For Speed: Shift gives us the largest split I can recall between multi-format chart placings. Is Need For Speed really that much of a PlayStation game?
