August 20, 2008 – Halo 3’s resurgence was short lived. This week’s list of the most played Xbox 360 has Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty 4 back in the driver’s seat, beating out rivals Halo 3 and Grand Theft Auto IV once again. Also popping on to the list at the tenth spot is the Fable II Pub Games. There are either going to be a lot of rich or a lot of poor heroes in Albion when Fable II releases later this year.
Though Fable II Pub Games was the most played Xbox Live Arcade game last week, it wasn’t the most purchased. That distinction goes to Bionic Commando: Rearmed, Capcom’s stellar remake of the classic. The Pub Games came in at number two, though we all hope that number counts preorder giveaways.
The Top Live Titles list, as reported by Major Nelson, ranks unique users playing Xbox 360 games while connected to Live. The Top Arcade Titles list is based on the number of full versions sold in a given week.
