Charts: UK 23-29 August

The excellent Batman: Arkham Asylum laid claim to the top spots in the British gaming charts this week making it the biggest No. 1 for publisher Eidos since Who wants to be a Millionaire? back in 2000, bigger recent Tomb Raider number ones such as Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness and Tomb Raider: Legend. The split between the winning Xbox 360 version (55%) and the PS3 version (45%) was fairly close. Perhaps the PS3 version can pass the Xbox 360 version in the coming weeks on the back of PS3 Slim sales?
