I find it hard to believe that Reach is still in the top 5.

  Halo 4 hype build up.
  - http://twitter.com/MythicalWolf77 Mythical Wolf
    
    You mean, Call Of Halo 4. There is no “Halo 4″.
    - Lee Rayson
      
      right….you realise there been shooters around since before CoD not everything needs to be compared to that
    - http://www.facebook.com/adamdjt Adam Daniel John Thompson
      
      Halo needed to evolve, Reach was 100 times better than Halo AE, Halo $ might be better still. Otherwise, go back and play Doom if you are allergic to change.

  My friends and I play it all the time.

WOW once again Minecraft is at the top, impressive!

  Right after JoJo’s DLC Adventure.

It still amazes me that Trials HD, and Castle Crashers are in the top 20 for XBLA games sold this long after release.
- aStrangeDisease
  
  Castle Crashers is still in the top ten! That is staying power.
- Lee Rayson
  
  Think it about time the Developer either done some story dlc or castle crashers 2
  - mcmax3000
    
    The Castle Crashers developers are working on a new game. Supposed to be out in the very near future I believe.

3 COD ahead of Battlefield 3…. You can tell Xbox 360 players have horrible taste and want something easy. Don’t get me wrong I played COD in the past but it’s just the same **** over and over and you retards still buy it.
- Aron Ross
  
  That’s because most serious BF3 players would be on PC, not xbox. BF is a PC game, COD is a console game; that pretty much sums it up.
  - http://twitter.com/bat0nas Tomas Misevičius
    
    Maybe you’re right.
    But do we have any reliable PC COD/BF3 statistics to prove that?
  - http://twitter.com/DaBadGuyCR Chris R
    
    COD Is a horrible game period no matter what system. Same game, same game play, same look, same feel, seriously sheep are sad but console gamers are lazy and no longer want to have to play to become better. They rather just play a simple game and be great at it. Seriously I haven’t played MW3 in months and I bet I can still pull a 20/3 kd.
    - Aron Ross
      
      Consoles are and always have been about being able to play games from your couch while having fun. COD just happens to be popular for that because it has endless replay value, a big community and you can easily enjoy it without putting too much effort in or being good at it. That’s how it is and how it will be for many years, so just deal with it and stop hating on COD so much……
      - http://twitter.com/bat0nas Tomas Misevičius
        
        But wht then BF3 (or BFBC2 before) is not that popular. It’s easy, you can start quickly, it has a better gameplay, it has destructions, it has bigger maps etc.
        It has so much more than COD, but still COD is so popular.
        
        Why?
      - Aron Ross
        
        I can’t speak for everyone, but i assume that in-part has to do with the fact that not everyone likes big maps and prefer the smaller maps/more chaotic style that COD has. Sure BF3 has CQ now, but it’s a bit too late for that to stop people playing COD though.
        
        There is also how BF is generally seen to be more tactical and teamwork oriented, COD is pretty much the opposite of that so it’s easier to “pick up and play” so to speak.
      - http://www.facebook.com/adamdjt Adam Daniel John Thompson
        
        That’s why i prefer it to Halo. I hate big maps where you spend more time trying to find someone to shoot at than you do actually fighting. Also, more console players are notorious for not knowing how to play as a team as opposed to PC players.

I find these hard to believe sometimes and also why is 11 & 12 on windows fable III? Someone messed up lol.

- Lee Rayson
  
  wasnt it because mw2 maps went on sale ?

MINECRAFT IS THE SHIZNIT DOG

Like I said last week it’s great to see Minecraft near the top as it’s a brilliant game, can’t wait for the next update to it. Also great to see Dust: An Elysian Tale doing well to, another fantastic game which is well worthy of a purchase.

Who does #2 work for!

i hate call of duty minecraft should be number one
- http://www.facebook.com/adamdjt Adam Daniel John Thompson
  
  More people prefer to play Minecraft on the PC, not the cut down Xbox version.
http://twitter.com/PigBrine Pigbrine

Well i am glad Minecraft is near the top and also Dust those are really great games and i am surprised to see halo reach in the top 5.
