Drivers, start your engines! It sure looks like there's a new top-notcher on the UK's gaming preference, and it doesn't have anything to do with soccer balls, plumber long jumps or WWII reincarnates.

It's been a month since we've kept track of the hottest selling games in the UK, but we guess later is better than never. The latest numbers rolled off from Chart Track's UK list for the week ending August 25, and Take-Two Interactive's BioShock claims the throne from top-notcher Transformers: The Game from Activision.

With Activision's multi-platformer sitting on number two, Nintendo's Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training stays firmly at the third spot. Another Brain Training title, More Brain Training From Dr. Kawashima, tails closely at third, swapping places with Wii Play which now sits at fourth.

Pokemon Diamond drops two places to sixth, pushing Electronic Arts' Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix to the number seven spot. Ubisoft's Surf's Up, Microsoft's Blue Dragon, and Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Warfighter 2 closes the lower three of the top ten, from eighth place onwards in that order. In quick summary, that would be:

• BioShock (Take-Two Interactive)
• Transformers: The Game (Activision)
• Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training (Nintendo)
• More Brain Training From Dr. Kawashima (Nintendo)
• Wii Play (Nintendo)
• Pokemon Diamond (Nintendo)
• Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix (Electronic Arts)
• Surf's Up (Ubisoft)
• Blue Dragon (Microsoft)
• Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Warfighter 2 (Ubisoft)

 

And how goes the gamers from the UK for the week past July 17? Chart Track's been busy as a bee, and it appears all you Harry Potter fans were, too. Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix (PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PSP, DS, mobiles) from Electronic Arts is still "leviosa-ing" at the top of the charts with Activision's Transformers: The Game rolling out at second.

And those who haven't got their minds locked on either movie-based games are still bench-pressing those neurons with More Brain Training from Dr. Kawashima from Nintendo, with fellow Nintendo brain-twister Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree close in tow. Fifth spot is Wii Play's playground, with the Nintendo title still frolicking in the top ten, Wiimote in hand. Activision's Shrek The Third lumbers over to number six, while Take-Two's The Darkness lurks on number seven.

Nintendo's Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training brainstorms to eight spot, while simmering in at number nine is 505 Games' Cooking Mama. And re-entering the charts is Electronic Arts' Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 with a straight cut into the all-platforms' upper ten, giving the golfing title a shot for the birdie.
