Electronic Arts made the number one chart position its home during 2006, with 27 weeks at number one - leaving rival publishers struggling under the weight of franchises such as FIFA.
FIFA 07, FIFA Street 2 and 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany spent a collective 17 weeks in the top position, while Need for Speed Carbon and its predecessor Need for Speed Most Wanted shared eight weeks at number one in 2006.
It wasn't just familiar franchises that managed to claim the coveted spot for EA, with new IP Black and the game based on Mario Puzo's The Godfather both managing a short stint at number one.
The closest any other publishers got to EA's triumphant performance was six number ones each for THQ and Take 2.
