London 2012 grabs the UK Chart gold
Words by: Jeff Barker | Posted: 9 months ago | Filed under: News.
The official game of the London 2012 olympiad has stormed forth into the UK Chart top spot this week, bringing LEGO Batman 2‘s five-week reign to an abrupt end. We should’ve seen it coming really, but I incorrectly predicted that TT Games’ second title based on the adventures of the blocky Dark Knight would remain unchallenged for first position for at least another week. Elsewhere, Batman: Arkham City notches forward a few extra places from 7th to 5th, whilst WWE ’12, Battlefield 3 and Assassin’s Creed: Revelations make welcome re-entries.
Here are the charts for the week ending 28th July 2012:
