UK Charts: LEGO Batman 2 Saves the Day
FIFA 12 didn’t return to the number one spot in the charts for long – and after the dramatic Penalty shoot-out loss suffered by England, expect Euro 2012 fever to really decline even further.
Instead, brand new release LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes has swooped in, under cover of darkness to claim the top place in the chart. Featuring a whole host of DC Super Heroes and Villains, the game is the first LEGO title where the mini-figures are actually fully voiced. Expect our full review of the title soon.
The only other new release to make a dent in the charts this week is Civilization V: God and Kings, the latest add-on to the epic strategy series. Other than that, there hasn’t been a great deal of movement in the charts, what with publishers gearing up for the silly season in a few months’ time.
As always you can click the name of the game to read our review.
