UK Charts: Sleeping Dogs Leaps Back to the Top Spot
The Hong Kong action game Sleeping Dogs – that Activision tried to kill – just won’t die, as itcomes back to re-claim the number one spot in the UK charts.
The open-world sandbox game, that sees gamers taking on the role of undercover cop Wei Shen, as he tries to infiltrate the world of Triad gangs, has taken the top spot again, after losing it to Guild Wars 2 for a week.
Guild Wars 2 has however, now dropped down to sixth, whilst the only new entry into the charts this week is the heavily-advertised The Sims 3: Supernatural. The only other big mover this week is Sniper Elite V2, which managed to jump from thirty-first place all the way into seventeenth, many months after its initial release.
As always you can click the name of the game to read our review.

If I'm not playing on a good Adventure Game - still longing for the long-past Golden Age of the genre, when Lucasarts and Sierra ruled supreme - you might find me searching for a local arcade, in the hopes that it still houses titles such as Sunset Riders or WindJammers.
