UK CHARTS: Brink is No.1

Any worries that PSN downtime might have affected the chances of Bethesda’s new release Brink have been dismissed after the game debuted at the top of the UKIE GfK Chart-Track All Formats Top 40 this week.

There’s another new entry right behind it, too – Disney Interactive’s LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean.

That also makes it a UK studio one-two two at the top of the listings, with London developer Splash Damage and Oxfordshire’s Traveller’s Tales delivering the goods.

Last week’s No.1 Zumba Fitness slips to 3rd while THQ’s cut-price MX vs ATV Alive debuts in at number ten.
