Xbox Live activity charts: Minecraft Xbox 360 beats Black Ops

This has to be something extraordinary as Minecraft Xbox 360 edition has beaten Call of Duty: Black Ops to place no. 2 on the Xbox Live activity charts for this week.

Major Nelson tweeted that this is the first time an XBLA game has done this: “Pretty sure this is the first time an XBLA title has hit #2.” Notch has to be pretty happy with these results as Minecraft Xbox 360 is also the fastest selling Xbox Live Arcade game ever.

“In less than one week on the market, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has sold more than 1,000,000 units globally,” Nelson wrote. It remains to be seen how much the game has sold so far.
