The country is currently going cricket mad thanks to England's success in the Ashes series. This has helped to propel Brian Lara International Cricket 2005 back to the top of the chart. The blockbuster movie season may be over, but movie tie-ins are showing no sign of leaving the videogame chart. Madagascar, Fantastic 4 and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are placed at numbers 2, 3 and 4 respectfully, with LEGO Star Wars at No.6 and Star Wars Episode III at No.15.
This week's only other notable movers are The Sims 2, moving up seven places to No.11, and Half Life 2 re-entering the top 20.
