Video game developer Ubisoft ended 2007 on a high after Assassin's Creed sneaked in at the top of the All Formats Chart on the PS3 and Xbox 360 rankings.
UK sales tracking firm Chart Track revealed that Assassin's Creed dropped seven per cent in sales from the previous week's chart, but that Activision's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare slipped from first to third with a 37 per cent decline.
Football games FIFA 08 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 were the only All Formats Top 10 games to increase in sales.
