Rockstar's recently released PC and Xbox version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas has been making its presence felt in the UK software charts ever since the its release on June 10th. San Andreas has knocked out heavy-weight, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, which has fallen to the number 2 position.
Ever since its release to PS2 last year, the game has flourished with one of the biggest opening weeks of all time for a videogame.
