The Xbox Live activity charts for the week of October 15th are here, and the results my surprise you. After a four year incredible run, Call of Duty has finally relinquished the top spot, and it’s not an obvious choice such as FIFA or Halo or Battlefield that replaces it- no, it’s Minecraft.
Ahead of the recently released FIFA 13 and the always-tops-the-charts Modern Warfare 3; even ahead of big titles like Resident Evil 6, Skyrim and Borderlands 2, Minecraft is the game that signed in Xbox 360 users are playing the most. Shocking, eh?
Here’s the full top 20:
- 1. Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
- 2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
- 3. EA Sports FIFA Soccer 13
- 4. Call of Duty: Black Ops
- 5. Borderlands 2
- 6. Halo: Reach
- 7. Battlefield 3
- 8. Modern Warfare 2
- 9. Madden NFL 13
- 10. NBA 2K13
- 11. Happy Wars
- 12. Skyrim
- 13. Gears of War 3
- 14. RESIDENT EVIL 6
- 15. GTA IV
- 16. FIFA 12
- 17. Forza Motorsport 4
- 18. Dishonored
- 19. EA SPORTS NHL13
- 20. Halo 3
With Black Ops 2, Halo 4 and Assassin’s Creed 3 releasing in just a few days, I doubt Minecraft will retain its spot much longer.
