‘Batman: Arkham City’ explodes to the top of the All Formats Chart this week as the 4th biggest launch of the year so far (behind FIFA 12, Gears of War 3 & L.A Noire).

It is by far the biggest ever launch for Warner Bros, selling almost double the launch week sales of the Eidos/Square Enix published predecessor ‘Batman: Arkham Asylum’. It is also a great week for UK developers with ‘Batman: Arkham City’ developed by North London outfit ‘Rocksteady Studios’ and the next highest new entry ‘Football Manager 2012’ by Sports Interactive who are also based in London, only a few miles away. ‘Football Manager 2012’ published by Sega, debuts at No3 only 1,800 sales behind ‘FIFA 12’ which holds on to No2 despite a 35% drop in sales. This means that last week’s No1 ‘Forza Motorsport 4’ (-52%) has to settle for No4, ahead of ‘Just Dance 3’ (-12%) which slips 2 places to No5. There is only one other new entry to break into the Top 10 this week: EA’s ‘The Sims 3: Pets’, new at No6. ‘Pro Evolution Soccer 2012’ (-52%) falls two places, down to No7, ensuring that 3 football games feature in the Top 10 this week. ‘Rage’ (-63%) suffers this week’s biggest drop in sales for a Top 10 title, slipping from No4 to No8, while 505 Games’ ‘Zumba Fitness’ (-1%) shows good resilience, only slipping one place to No9 with sales holding steady. Previous No1 ‘Gears of War 3’ (-34%) rounds things off at No10, making Microsoft the only company to have at least two games in the Top 10 this week. There are two more Top 40 newcomers this week: ‘Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One’ at No24 and ‘Dance Central 2’ at No40.

It seems like Kinect is really a one trick pony in Europe, I sure hope for MS that I'm right about that 2012 Xbox 720.

wtf, Wii music at 17 lol.

Very bad Dance Central 2 performance. I thought that was one of the most popular Kinect games.

If Kinect Sports 2 performs the same, Kinect will be done for.

Very bad Dance Central 2 performance. I thought that was one of the most popular Kinect games.

If Kinect Sports 2 performs the same, Kinect will be done for.

Frontier, Rare, Harmonix and Double Fine on suicide watch.

Oh Ubisoft Tin Tin's game launched too ouch.

Very much deserved from Batman: Arkham City.

Shame to see Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One enter at such a low point. Zero marketing and poor reviews have pretty much killed its chances.

Ratchet isn't doing good. :/ I doubt we'll see another one with sales like this. Shame because I love the "normal" games.

How did Wii Music manage to chart again?!

So Ratchet bomba, Resistance 3 bomba, *looks at overstrike* yeah that pretty much wraps up Insomniac.

It's fair to assume Ratchet & Clank as a franchise is done, and Resistance! Just noticed the drop.

Dark Souls dropped liek a rock too...

Really? It's not even Christmas shopping season yet.

Awesome Batman.
LOL at Wii Music...double LOL since it outperforms even Ratchet and Clank.
Oh crap @ Dance Central not even in top40, and surpassed by... Dance Junior and Just Dance...2.

Good @ Skylanders! It's risen from last week!

Sorry 3DS, I tried. Grabbed Zelda and Tetris this week.

Yeah, Wii music is a winner this week. Just out of nowhere...

Kinect will be something to watch this holyday season. Altough I personally think that its "wii effect" days are over.

Dead Island still charting... Amazing.

Did we ever get WW LTD numbers for it? It's gotta be close to 4 million or something

It seems like Kinect is really a one trick pony in Europe, I sure hope for MS that I'm right about that 2012 Xbox 720.

Well, to be fair, Just Dance 3 is doing pretty well but yeah. I bet the Kinect hardware sales are nowhere even close to MS' shipments (would explain the heavy pricedrops that it got at retail a few months back)

Wow, Tintin came out as well?! How the hell did that not even chart at all?!

Shame about Tetris not charting, but we'll have to see how it fairs next week (Nintendo published games typically don't get advertised until the following week and then see a boost on the charts - plus the game will probably have some nice legs anyway)

Here in the UK they have just started a new TV ad campaign as well.

Ratchet never debuts very high in UK, it's a series with legs. Resistance as a franchise is done though, not showing the legs that were promised in Europe. Won't be in a single European PS3 Top10 this week.

All Formats Ratchet & Clank Chart Debuts;

[PS2] [15/40] Ratchet & Clank (Sony Computer Ent.) {2002.11.08} - (200,00+)

Wow at Wii music, I did see a tv ad for argos saying they've got a Wii bundle for 99 quid with Wii music so that probably explains it

Holy shit at Dance Central 2. These titles aren't supposed to be front loaded from my experience but that... is terrible.

I didn't even know Dance Central 2 was out. Given its first week performance I reckon I'll pick it up at bomba prices real soon.

I hope everyone bought VidRhythm. Poor Harmonix.

Dark Souls truly is an anomaly. Incredibly popular across internet forums, barely relevant in the real world.

Well, that's not true. It's done great in Japan and will probably sell a few million worldwide in the end.

I'm suprised Ratchet charted at all... so to hit the Top 20 can't be too bad, seeing as there was zero marketing, not great reviews and it wasn't as eagerly awaited as the past games. I think it's done ok there.

Wii Music is getting bundled in with the console now at certain stores, hence the re-entry, so not suprising. People aren't buying this because they want it

Ubisoft seem to have a massive hold on the dance games market, where everything else seems to bomb. DanceStar Party did horrendous considering it's a budget title and it's being really well advertised.

I'm sure, while not a great start for Dance Central 2, it'll rise up the charts in the coming weeks for Xmas. Though with Just Dance 3 now competing, who knows.

I have been telling this in NPD threads, Wii will just mop floors with Kinect as we near the holiday, and we aren't really near anyway.

Ratchet&Clank debut at #18 is disappointing.
Seventh week on the charts for Resistance 3 though. Yay, etc.

What is it with you guys calling Resistance 3 a bomba in PAL chart threads? It was in the top 20 for six weeks. Did you just move over to PAL after the September NPDs were released, and assumed they were "simultaneous" in some crazy fashion? Because then you've missed the first 4 or 5 weeks of Resistance 3 charting pretty respectably in the UK.

3DS is probably over a year away from having enough software to regularly get games that chart.

But really, is anyone shocked that Tetris flopped? I mean really?

And Ratchet deserves better than this.

Harmonix are in trouble.

Because this is GAF. If it doesn't stay in the top 10 and sell at least 3 million in the first 5 minutes of sale, it bombed.

Forza 4 was number 1 at what? 106k?

Look at this for example:

07. PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER 2012 - KONAMI - ~17,000 / ~52,000 (-52%)

Bottom top 20 is like 10k and that's being very generous.

Batman.

Checked the Eurogamer article, seems that Amazon got no copies of Dance Central 2, going by the comments (my copy was delayed too, but thought it was just due to a late order on my part).

Hell no, I bought it on N64, day one, and completed it in one 53 hour sitting (still my longest ever). That was the days before FAQ's!

Watch all the second gen Kinect games bomb, just like the Wii ones. I'd say people bought a Kinect for the lulz and now like the Wii they're over it.

Kinect Sports 2, watch out.

Going by the way Microsoft have been completely silent about sales since March it seems like Kinect has hit a bit of a slump. This holiday season will be very important for it.

Wii Sports Resort, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Wii Fit Plus and the Just Dance sequels did not bomb. But I do think that the Kinect was a one hit wonder that exploded out of the gate and fizzled out very quickly (the definition of a fad I guess)

Wii lived for a normal console lifespan and died when it became saturated and software support dried up. The 360 and PS3 are an abnormality in that respect because they're living longer than most other consoles (thanks to them continuing to get the lion's share of software and marketing support and their high prices, which have yet to truly hit mass market levels)

After all the info we got this week, you know it isn't happening in 2012.

DC1 never really took off in the UK either, but it will be impossible to judge these kind of games until the holiday shopping season.

It was the 2nd best selling Kinect game (right after Kinect Sports)

In the UK? Do we have any definitive numbers for that? I remember it having a soft debut last year and dropping off the charts, the opposite of Kinect Sports.

Debut at #12. Then it went 20, 22, 28, 30, 25, 19, 9, 16, 7, 12, 18, 23, 27, 29, 33, 31, 40, out.
