This week's ELSPA official UK game sales chart as compiled by Chart-Track sees Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire retaining positions one and two for a third week, as the only new entry, Aliens Versus Predator: Extinction, debuts at number 12. The remaining games in the chart moved very little this week, and it's last week's only new entry, Flight Simulator 2004, that has dropped out of the top 20 to make room for Fox Interactive and EA's latest offering.
