Halo 3 tops Gears 2 and both COD's in Live Activity, November 24th!

Wow surprise surprise, Hail to the king much? THis is very surprising for it to pass Gears 2, especially since the game just released. Also take note that the Legendary Map Pack did not go on sale until a week later.

Gears 2 will be at the top soon i think. With the newest update greatly improving the waiting time for games and the lag. Also i think alot of people will be playing gears2 after xmas, so expect gears2 to be at the top for the week of xmas!kozzy1234

It's quite simple. GeoW 2's online dosn't work for alot of people. People still play CoD 4, but half of those moved on to CoD: WaW. That means the community is split.

As such it's really just a convinent set up for Bungie, or whatever. That and Halo 3 is still immensly popular.

Considering that Gears' multiplayer is now laggy as hell, and that matchmaking still takes a long time, I'm not surprised that it wasn't at number 1. I can't comment on CoD though, haven't player it yet.Legendaryscmt

Gears of War's multiplayer has improved.

Not enough to put anyone else on top it would seem.

Na. I own Gears 2 and imo the mp is still terrible... COD:WAW is pretty amazing though, just because its COD4 with WWII weapons and dogs...

Halo 3 is still #1 in online gaming because of Bungie's fan support. Bungie, IMO, is the greatest developer of all-time because of this. They constantly update the playlist making every week fresh. Along with new maps being released every quarter as wellkrp008

because halo 3 has godly MP

I play it atleast once a week

Over a year later and Halo3 still the most played online game is pretty impressive.Just shows that Halo 3: Recon will be another monster seller. I xpect Halo 3:recon will be the biggest seller of next year.rybe1025

I am glad to see that people prefer the better game. organic_machine

What's funny about that? Are you saying his opinion is wrong?:? I think Bungie deserves to be up there too. They've proven themselves a talented group of developers with a great attachment to their fanbase...

[QUOTE="rybe1025"][QUOTE="BurningEdge"] Over FF? RE5? Even Killzone? No. Just no.BurningEdge

MGS4 numbers

Yes it is VGcharts but they update their numbers so the numbers are not to far off. Also RfoM2 was a holiday shooter with a lot of hype and look at the sales. I am not saying this to bash the PS3 just pointing out there is no way KZ2 will touch Halo. I mean think about it Halo 3 sold more then twice what MGS4 has sold.

[QUOTE="BurningEdge"][QUOTE="rybe1025"] FF is the only one on the list where it would be iffy but that is only coming out in Japan in 09. Even if Halo 3:Recon only sold half of Halo 3 then that is still over 4 million. So if it only sold half which I doubt very highly will happen I think it will sell more then half but if it did then RE5 has a shot. KZ2 has no shot at touching Halo3:Recon numbers that is just silly and anyone that thinks that is kidding themselves.rybe1025

Maybe those people still playing Halo 2 have finally bought a 360 :P

Makes sense, COD has split between COD4 and CODWAW and now Halo 3 has overtaken it. (COD4 was the most active Live game for many months)

Halo 3 is the puriest of the GAMER Blood. I cannot be stopped. Master Cheif will never die. Omni-Wrath

Halo 3 is a beast. What do you guys expect? :)

Oh wait...you guys thought Gears 2's MP would be better than Halo 3's? HA! :P
