It's a Star Wars overload this week, as new release Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith heads straight for number one, sending Lego Star Wars packing to second place. Astonishingly, these two titles make up 57% of this week's top 10 games' sales.

Award winning newcomers Hip Interactive also get a top 10 position, with Pariah making an entrance at number seven.

Meanwhile, the first DS game release since the handheld's launch arrives in the shape of Yoshi Touch & Go. Just missing the top 20 at position 22, this latest offering from Nintendo wasn't enough to topple Super Mario 64 DS which, now sitting at 14, has been roaming the top 20 since its launch.

Singstar Popworld is released on Friday, so expect to hear the not-so-dulcet tones of your neighbours' karaoke sessions - along with a chart appearance for the game - next week.
