Xbox LIVE Activity for week of 03/22: Modern Warfare 2 prepares itself for Battlefield

That Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2! What a rascal!

Not content to dominate the Xbox LIVE Activity ranking for weeks and months on end, and even with incredibly stiff competition in the form of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Modern Warfare 2 is still able to remain the No. 1 most played Xbox 360 game on Xbox LIVE.

Xbox LIVE Logo SmallerWith the release of the Stimulus Package downloadable content (DLC) this week, and the Bad Company 2’s own map-pack, that battle for the top spot is only going to intensify in the coming weeks, but I have a sneaking suspicion that Modern Warfare 2 is going to keep that No. 1 position for the foreseeable future. Just a hunch.

Somehow, Xbox LIVE’s Game Room is at the top of the top of the best sellers list of Xbox LIVE Arcade games, even though the base download is free (unless the chart is counting games purchases), as last week’s No. 1, Perfect Dark, sits at No. 2 and Toy Soldiers contents itself with No. 3

New Xbox Indie Games The Impossible Avatar Getaway sits at No. 1 as the best selling game on this list, as Avatar Showdown and I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES!!!1 hover at No. 2 and No. 3 respectively.

The full global list of top played Xbox Live games, original Xbox games and top selling XBLA and Xbox Indie Games follows below, all based on unique users and full versions purchased (now including the full top 20):

Comments:

Regarding indie games on xbli, the game Partyboat is a real hoot and shows how much fun and game play can be packed into the platform. This review in The Star says the creators are are nautical miles beyond the usual service. http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/games/article/761400—partyboat-makers-plotting-a-course-for-success.

The two developers tell their story here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy9la46H8pc&NR=1 and a clip of the actual game is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvUvJrJ7dWs

It all looks like a lot of work, but a lot of fun.
