AFL Evolution came in at 24th which is definitely a good effort for a locally produced game. Ubisoft had 15 games in the top 10 ahead of EA with 14 and Warner Bros with 13.

In terms of the first party guys, Nintendo were the big winners with 10 games in the top 100, Sony and Microsoft managed to get 5 apiece.
