Top Xbox Live Games

Larry Hyrb over at Microsoft has posted the top 10 games for Xbox, Xbox 360, and XBLA. Not too surprising, Halo 2 is at the top of the Xbox games. CoD2 still holding strong on 360...

Was it a wise move to fix the Call of Duty 2 networking issues that customers complained about for months? Sure thing! Call of Duty 2 continues to hold strong at number one.

Although games on top do not require "network play" (i.e. Oblivion) - they're still most often found in a gamers console DVD tray and being played by gamers.

Interestingly Pac-Man is higher than Street Fighter II' Hyper Fighting. With all the hype for this game it would seem obvious that this would be top game for the duration of this year. Oh well, apparently hype is just that... excitement. Once gamers get their retro fix it is time to move on to the next game...
