UK Charts: Bad Company 2 Dominates
EA's newcomer Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has topped the UK All-Formats chart.
Xbox 360 claimed most sales (53 per cent), followed by PS3 (31 per cent) and then PC (16 per cent). The latter number is likely to be higher in reality as digital sales are not counted.
The other new entries in the top 40 were Supreme Commander 2 in 23rd and the PC edition of Assassin's Creed II, which boosted the multiplatform game to 14th.
Ubisoft's Wii champion Just Dance was in second, Aliens vs. Predator in third, Heavy Rain in fourth and Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing in fifth.
Wii Fit Plus, Modern Warfare 2, Wii Sports Resort, FIFA 10 and New Super Mario Bros. Wii rounded out the top 10.
