Zumba Fitness is the big winner of the slow sales season that is the summer of this year and the game has once again managed to top the United Kingdom video game chart last week and might stay there for a few weeks more before autumn comes around with its high-profile launches.

Zumba Fitness is a mix between dancing and workout programs and it's popularity is big enough the 505 Games is preparing to launch a second video game based on the same formula.

Second place in the United Kingdom has been won by Dirt 3, the off-road racing game from Codemasters, which has managed to put in quite a big jump to get into second position coming from seventh.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon, the blockbuster movie tie-in that Activision has created, also managed to deliver strong performance in order to take the last place of the podium after coming from six.

Last week's second place, LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean, coming from Disney Interactive Studios, has gone down to places to reach fourth while the second place occupier, the mix between detective work and action that is L.A. Noire, has gone down to fifth place.

Virtua Tennis 4, the sports simulation from SEGA, continues to benefit from a new-found interest for tennis and only slides down one place to sixth just as Call of Duty: Black Ops, the best-selling title of last year, has managed an impressive comeback and regained ten places to reach seventh.

At number eight sits Brink, the multiplayer shooter from Splash Damage and Bethesda Softworks, is just ahead of F.E.A.R. 3 from Warner Bros, which has gone down quickly from fourth spot.

The top ten is closed down by Top Spin 4 from 2K Sports, with FIFA 11 sitting in eleventh spot.
