Blizzard's Diablo II: Lord of Destruction expansion has successfully held onto the top position this week. Meanwhile, all of the regulars have maintained their position--The Sims and The Sims: House Party fall in at two and three. The original Diablo II continues to post impressive sales, thanks in large part to the popular expansion, and Roller Coaster Tycoon settles in at the fifth spot. However, there were a few surprises this week. Microsoft's Age of Empires II and Flight Simulator have unexpectedly surged back onto the charts and settled in at the eight and nine spots respectively.
