As i suspected, the 3DS version of 'Lego: Pirates of the Caribbean' charted

Brink for PS3 charted also quite high in my opinion concidering that PSN was down. Isnt Brink pretty much only online play? I know that it has single player as well, but is that a real campaign or are you just playing against bots?

Really, is it?

I can only see CoD which is massively down over the last couple of weeks. Killzone 3 was up this week, Brink charted at number four and that is pretty much a multiplayer game. Even so, next week's chart will have the rebound effect now that PSN is back up, so we will see how much the downtime affected game sales.

I think the Lego games are fun but I'm surprised they've stayed popular for so long. I find the formula to be wearing thin.

Hey a 3DS game!

Halo 3 is holding up well considering it's a 2007 game. Such a classic.

They're essentially the same collectathon games with different thematic backgrounds. It was wearing [ice] thin quite some time ago.

I guess the movie licence really helps - and it's "child friendly".

Halo 3 is holding up well considering it's a 2007 game. Such a classic.

It's remarkable to see it in the charts given the number of pre-owned copies (of any game of that age) floating about. The fact it has a banging co-op campaign probably helps give it legs.

They're essentially the same collectathon games with different thematic backgrounds. It was wearing [ice] thin quite some time ago.

I guess the movie licence really helps - and it's "child friendly".

They're coming on in leaps and bounds in the graphics department. Level and puzzle design seems to be improving too with the last couple.

The missus plays them compulsively so I get to see the evolution. I used to join in but lost my enthusiasm somewhere around Lego Batman.

I'd be there day 1 for Lego Mad Max or Lego American Psycho.

Glad for Brink. I just hope Splash Damage get those patches out quickly before people get even more annoyed with the various issues. When it works, Brink is an awesome team game.

 

[MrCookiepants]

Brink (and Homefront) just goes to show that any FPS with decent marketing is a guaranteed hit. Though PS3 owners seem less inclined to blindly buy into the hype.

Uhmmm Brink hasn't been marketed that big, people were just looking forward to it.
It's certainly not as bad a game as Homefront.

Yeah I didn't think that would be the game to do it. It was a close call, though.

It was close indeed. It could easily have tipped under top 40, but at least it made it within top 40

I didnt see your previous reply before now by the way. I agree that it shall be interesting to see what Dead or Alive will do next week. I think that it has a fairly good chance to chart.
