Modern Warfare 3 tops Xbox Live activity charts, beats Battlefield 3

Given the fact that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has been selling like crazy, selling 6.5 million units on day 1, it’s not big surprise that the game has topped the Xbox Live activity charts. What’s impressive is that the game did it with just two days on the market.

At the second spot was Call of Duty’s last year’s iteration, Black Ops, and at #3 came in Battlefield 3. Even No. 4 went to Call of Duty, with Modern Warfare 2 taking the spot. Gears of War 3 was on the fifth spot.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was on 14, and World at War at 20. As always, the list is dominated by the franchise.

Here’s the full list (for the week of November 7):

01. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
