Need for Speed in hot pursuit.
Call of Duty: Black Ops has denied Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit a top spot in the UK all-formats chart.
Activision’s record-breaking game is top (54 per cent on Xbox 360, 40 per cent on PS3); Ubisoft’s celebrated action game second (55 per cent on Xbox 360, 45 per cent on PS3); and EA’s fantastic racing title third (48 per cent on Xbox 360, 47 per cent on PS3).
Call of Duty: Black Ops sales dipped 85 per cent from last week, but Treyarch’s shooter still managed to sell 63,000 copies more than AC: Brotherhood. The latter has enjoyed the biggest UK launch of the Assassin’s Creed series.
