‘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’.

Don't have Arkham Asylum first week, but L.A. Noire did 246k.

Wait, never mind (forgot about Just Dance 3) We'll have to see the individual formats chart...

The Eidos side of SquareEnix is doing amazing. I wonder if the Japanese side is even aware of how much they are behind their western co-workers.

Warner Bros. took Batman back. Or were you referring to Deus Ex?

Wow at Dance central 2 not charting in the individual chart. That's crazy they're advertising it like mad!

Killed by Just Dance Kinect no doubt.

Yep, crazy...

Maybe it'll have legs, although I doubt it.

Next week is Kinect Sports 2, MS is probably already closing up shop in Twycross.

We can only hope. I'd rather see Rare be put to rest than see their corpse being dragged around by MS.

Ouch at DC2. I picked it and AC up last friday.

Hopefully it's a slow burner. I bet MS thought they could do some counter programming against AC.
