Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas tops a heavyweight year, with The Sims 2, Halo 2 and Half-Life 2 all landing within the top four — a rare alignment of console and PC giants. The pattern is twofold: EA's annual sports run (Pro Evolution Soccer 4, FIFA Football 2005) and a glut of PS2 hardware and accessories, from the new Slimline Console to memory cards and EyeToy cameras. Surprises include SingStar with 2 Microphones bringing karaoke to the chart and Fable arriving on Xbox. With the PS2 install base near its zenith and Half-Life 2 pushing PC forward, 2004 was the sixth generation operating at full power.
