Indiana Jones back atop UK charts
Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures - which ended GTA IV's run at the top of the charts only to drop to second place with the release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots - has now retaken the number one position.

Newcomer Alone in the Dark debuts in third place with less than half the sales of MGS4. Another new entry - Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII - debuted at number ten and accounted for 54 per cent of all full price PSP games sold last week.
Grand Theft Auto IV drops one place to number four while Wii Play, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games and Brain Training maintain their chart presence.
