UK Charts – Batman: Arkham City Beats Down Opposition
This week’s UK Charts sees Batman: Arkham City take over at the top of the table, which is really no surprise. What is a surprise perhaps is that Football Manager 2012 enters in third place, which is very impressive for a PC only title.
Standing firm in the top ten we also see Forza Motorsport 4 has dropped to 4th place, whilst FIFA 12 says in second. RAGE drops four places to eighth, and Zumba Fitness is nearly out of the top ten for the first time in…well, we can’t remember! Gears of War 3 drops to tenth, while Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure climbs to eleventh.
Not faring quite so well though, we see Dark Souls has dropped right down to eighteenth place, whilst budget release Dead Rising 2: Off the Record barely stays in the top 20 this week.
What you can’t see from this table, is that Dance Central 2 only placed 40th in release week, and other new release Ratchet & Clank All 4 One enters in 24th place.
Our reviews of FIFA 12, Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure, Batman: Arkham City and Football Manager 2012 are all in progress, check back later in the week to find out how we scored them.
As always, you can can click the title of the game to see our review or coverage.
