Sega and Sports Interactive claimed first place in the British charts this week with Football Manager 2011. Sports Interactive's Miles Jacobson wrote the following on facebook:
"(cue Radio 1 jingle voice) "Britain's number one!" - thanks to everyone who bought #FM2011 last week & to Gran Turismo 5 for moving their release date."
Well, even without Gran Turismo 5 to worry about there was stiff competition from EA Sports' FIFA 11 and Fable III. James Bond had a very poor showing with GoldenEye 007 doing okay, but BloodStone bombing out almost completely (18th in the all formats chart).
