By Rob Crossley for CVG UK

Warner Bros and Travellers Tales are celebrating the longest-running chart-topper in the UK this year, with Lego Batman 2 enjoying a fifth consecutive week atop the all-format chart.

The popularity of the game, buoyed by Dark Knight Rises fever across cinemas, was enough to hold off Sega's Olympics title which climbed to second.

Discounts at retail pushed sales of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier by about 40 per cent, according to data firm Chart-Track. The Ubisoft shooter takes third, ahead of Activision's The Amazing Spider Man.

1. Lego Batman 2: Dc Super Heroes - Warner Bros. Interactive
