FIFA Street scores a hat-trick with three weeks at the top, despite a congested top three, with a difference of only 2000 sales between numbers one and three.

Doom 3's Xbox release has pushed the title back into the chart at number three and, with 97% of all copies of the game sold last week being the Xbox version, it's become the second fastest-selling Xbox game ever in the UK, behind only Halo 2.

Super Mario 64 DS and The Incredibles sneak back into the top 10, from 11 and 15 respectively, pushing Devil May Cry 3 down to 13 and Rugby 2005 down to 14, while Metal Gear Solid 3 slides from 10 to 17.

With no other fresh entries in the top 20, Doom 3 rears its demonic head again at 27 with PC expansion pack Resurrection of Evil, and Sega Superstars and Driver 3 re-enter the chart at 37 and 40.

Stunning Xbox adventure Jade Empire is out next week, along with the mighty union that is Lego Star Wars, so we should see at least one newcomer hit the top 10.
