Samit Sarkar would be proud this week, as the UK Chart is full to the brim with sports. The top five games are sports- or fitness-related, with Ashes Cricket 2009 ruling over them all. Cricket is a ludicrous game, but British people love it, so it's no surprise to see it come out on top.
Outside of Ashes Cricket's debut, you know the score by now. More Wii games, more Call of Duty, more Harry Potter. The charts this week are as predictable as a rapist at a "vulnerable drunk women in dark rooms" party. You can hit the jump for the usual list of crap that you don't really care about, since you're just here for the horrible chav images.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
It's surprisingly less decadent than the norm
i thought computer games were all about escaping to a virtual reality where you could do what you couldnt do in reality...
BRING BACK GPOLICE!
Damn you for reminding me. I need to go and dig up both of those games from the loft now.
Also, yay for the sales figures confirming that the general British public have NO FUCKING TASTE.
Also, go Codemasters. First British publisher at the top of the all formats chart since the start of 2007! Gotta give some kudos there! =)
I watched the news the other day and saw the results of the World Championship Sauna Sport or something. it was a sport revolving entirely around sitting in a sauna for the longest amount of time possible without leaving. I had no goddamn idea that was a real sport. also: the only people that won and claimed higher spots on the results list were all Russian and Finnish. it took place in Finland as well.
just wanted to share.
