Electronic Arts has claimed its first UK number one since June, thanks to Burnout 3, with the game enjoying an unusually even split between the two console formats (57% for the PlayStation 2 and 43% for the Xbox) – despite considerable consumer complaints about the online functionality. There has been little other movement in the charts this week, although Free Radical Design’s Second Sight seems to have benefited from good word of mouth, with a notable jump from its entry position last week.
