Published Tuesday, Sep 11 2007, 10:42 BST | By David Gibbon
Electronic Arts newcomer Medal of Honour: Airborne has stormed this week's all-formats games chart to take the coveted number one spot.
The action title ended the critically acclaimed BioShock's reign after spending two weeks at the top, with the latter seeing sales fall by some 59 per cent, dropping to this week's number three.
Electronic Arts also takes this week's number two position in the charts, with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 selling just 78 copies less than this week's market leader.
Other new entries this week include South Peak Games' Two Worlds at number four and The Sims 2: Bon Voyage at number eight.
And while Potter mania finally came to an end this week after the top-selling Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix dropped out of the top 10 to this week's number 12, Nintendo's leading Brain Training titles continue to sell well.

1. (-) Medal of Honour: Airborne (EA)
