Rare's Banjo-Kazooie clinched its position at the top of the rental charts this week, earning almost double the amount of the second place contender Mortal Kombat 4. Once again, Nintendo 64 titles have taken over the top five slots, and it doesn't look like this situation will let up anytime soon. Big PlayStation titles won't really be coming into view until September.
GoldenEye, after almost a year, stays at number three this week - and who knows, it could climb back up a notch or two again. Off Road Challenge lands at number four, and Nintendo's MLB Ken Griffey, Jr. rounds out the top five.
