Australia Sales Chart, Week Ending December 18

There was no new action in the majority of the charts, but the lower reaches saw a couple of returning favorites from earlier in the year. After a week’s absence from the charts, the Xbox version of Need for Speed: Most Wanted showed up again in the #10 spot, and the long-astray Nintendogs came home to #9 with Dachshund & Friends. Other than that, the chart remains untroubled by big releases. Sales of Need for Speed: Most Wanted for PS2 sufficiently picked up again to bring it up to #1 over last week’s NFL Rugby League 2, which fell to #4 this week. That shift also brought WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw and Buzz: The Music Game Quiz both up one notch, to #2 and #3 respectively. Other games hanging around on the chart are PSP smash hit Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, this week as last week at #5, Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire, now up to #8, and the twin Sony punch of SingStar 80s Bundle and EyeToy: Play 3, taking up the #6 and #7 spaces.
