We love charts here at playerattack, and one of the highlights of our week is receiving the latest details from ELSPA, who send us the 40 best-selling titles in Britain, as announced by the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association.
No real surprises who’s taken out top spot this week – seems the chance to play 2K’s latest was an offer many Brits could not refuse… Gaming’s top two baddies have been shunted to #2, but a certain Wii-waggling Resort has catapulted up from 16th to 5th.
