It hit number 5, then went out of the top 20 the next week. Very sad considering the quality of the game, and it was sold out due to GC never really sell well over here, and therefore had very limited stock.
And yes, I know I'm sad knowing all of this.

hahaah, you've never played NCAA 06, I take it. Or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for that matter. What a dire decision.

Surely Resident Evil 4 would have been up there as it was sold out everywhere.

Surely Resident Evil 4 would have been up there as it was sold out everywhere.

Yes, yes it is.
I like NFL, so obviously to me the US list is far superior.
But meh, other than that, both suck ass.

Atleast Battlefield 2 is in there, makes us look less stupid.

Actually...
I hate cricket with a vengeance. As pointless sports go, it's up there with darts and golf.
BUT!
A friend recently bought the EA Sports cricket game, and it's much more fun than the real thing.
Having played the demo of Brian Lara's Cricket, that's not bad either.
In fact, from both of those original charts, not one single title interests me. Brian Lara is an okay game, but I'd still need my arm twisted to the point of breaking before I'd actually buy it.

They got 2 games wrong in the top 10... oh noes. :P
*sigh* These are the proper English charts. Hedfix, you got that source from Gamespot probably, which is quite wrong. As you may notice, Sonic Gems Collection is not even out over here yet, plus it's very rare to see a GC game in the top 10, let alone the top 40.
