UK chart: Football Manager 2011 is top

Football Manager 2011 is top of the UK all-formats chart.

Apparently sales for Sports Interactive's title were stronger than for PES 2011.

"Err - have just been told that our first weekend sales on one format beat Pro Evo's first weekend on multiple formats. Gulp," tweeted SI boss Miles Jacobson.

Football Manager 2011 dumped last week's leader Fable III to third.

Activision's new James Bond games - Blood Stone and GoldenEye - fail to dent the top 10: GoldenEye is 13th and Blood Stone 18th.

FIFA 11 holds second and Just Dance is fourth, with Professor Layton and the Lost Future in fifth.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii busts back into the top 10 in sixth, Fallout: New Vegas is seventh and Medal of Honor eighth. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II and The Sims 3 round out the top 10.

Games that are knocked off the bottom of the all-formats top 40 this week: Rock Band 3, Vanquish, DJ Hero 2, Modernwarfare 2 and Mafia II.
