Minecraft beats Black Ops on Xbox Live's most played list

4.5
Call of Duty: Black Ops has been forced to take a no doubt temporary back step on the list of most played Xbox Live games thanks to Minecraft.

CoD games usually consistently dominate the top two spots of Xbox Live's most popular games. But while Modern Warfare 3 still has a firm hold of the top spot, the second-place seat has been stolen by Mojang and their cult-turned-popular crafting hit.
The Xbox 360 Edition sold over a million copies in less than a week on sale, breaking all previous Xbox LIVE Arcade digital sales records in the process.

Here's the list of Live's most played games for the week of May 14:

1)Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

2)Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition

3)Call of Duty: Black Ops

4)FIFA 12

5)Battlefield 3

6)Halo: Reach

7)Modern Warfare 2

8)NBA 2K12

9)Skyrim

10)Gears of War 3

11)GTA IV

12)Forza Motorsport 4

13)Max Payne 3

14)Trials Evolution

15)Mass Effect 3

16)NHL12

17)Madden NFL 12

18)Halo 3

19)Red Dead Redemption

20)Saints Row: The Third

AuntJemima Not surprised actually, i'm more surprised that so many people are actually still playing BO for it to be in 3rd.
It's not that so many people are playing Black Ops, It's just that so LITTLE people are playing the games below.

170 I think its funny Mw2 and Halo 3 are on that list.. Also very weird that BF3 is not 3rd BO2 sucks.....


How did you get to play BO2, its not even out yet?


He means the original Black Ops.


I would have to agree with him because how could the worst game in the world be in first... it just makes no sense. Also bring on the hate.

We're all getting off topic. XD

TheDeLiPLank286 how the **** is mw3 the first?? that game is sooo garbage like wtf


because of that new collection shit. Personally the 2v2 and 3v3 is fun because kids suck so much dick and rage quit. But other than that the game is a worthless piece of shit.
