Team Bondi/Rockstar Games' crime-drama nabs itself top spot in its opening weekend.

This week's major new releases, L.A. Noire and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, both managed to crack the top ten in their opening week - coming in at one and five respectively.

Last week's top dog, Brink, drops down to third while LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean manages to hold on to second. The rest of the top ten consists of the usual hangers-on with Zumba Fitness, Crysis 2, FIFA 11 and Portal 2 continuing to sell consistently well.
