Well deserved. Halo 4 not only matched what Bungie did, but surpassed it.
- Gregory Key
  
  No Halo 4 killed Halo, terrible game
http://twitter.com/MythicPilot Mythic

nice .. next week we’ll have Blops2 but after that I hope Halo will return to dominate
- TonyLN
  
  I think Halo will keep the number 1 spot over BlOps2. Over multiple systems Black Ops will probably win, but on the just the 360 I think we will see Halo stay at the top!

    This is Xbox Live activity.
    Call of Duty is much bigger than Halo. Halo has no chance of retaining that #1 spot.
- http://twitter.com/ItsMaEc Its Ma Ec
  
  Never gonna happen. Black Ops 2 will stay at #1 until the next COD game launches.
- a fat mess
  
  What’s sad is that a lot of people will have played Halo 4 for one week, and then move on to Black Ops 2 and never play Halo 4 again. Why bother getting Halo 4 if you’re only going to play it for a week? These people are wasting their money in two ways, by paying $60 for a game they’ll only play for a week, and by paying $60 for a rehashed game from 2007.

    Thats me
  - Gregory Key
    
    Cause we thought it would be an awesome game, Halo 4 is a poor CoD clone
    - a fat mess
      
      Yeah because COD is the only game that has loadouts and all that stuff right? Please…
- pharmassist
  
  hopefully, that ends up true.
  I know I can’t wait to go back home this weekend and play halo 4. I love the game.

before halo 4 launch? So what you are saying halo was played the most before even release? umm

  Probably should’ve read:
  
  “Note: The is the list for the week before Call of Duty: Black Ops II launched.”
  - Emmanuel Santos
    
    its correct, the week list is dated NOV 5 and halo came out NOV 6. so that was ALOT of street date breaking
    - Dr4gOnsFuRy
      
      Not really. I received mine the day before. It is very common for online retailers to send the pre-orders early so people get it by release day. I’ve had many games before release. There’s nothing saying this is breaking any rules and it is perfectly fine to go online too. However, selling the game before release date in shops is illegal.

        It’ll also be week beginning Nov 5 and as Halo 4 was released Nov 6 it would be included in that weeks stats
    - mcmax3000
      
      The WEEK OF November 5, as in, for the week that began on November 5.
Russell Gorall

I see a lot of my pop military shooter is better than yours comments.

  what do you play Russell? besides trolling here.
  
  and planetside FTW
virtualmatrix258

And CoD will be back on top, hopefully. Need the trolls to go over there. CoD is like a gravitational pull for assholes.

Mnecraft, Walking Dead and Guardian Heroes in top 3 xbla? Brings a tear of joy to my eye to see there are still many people out there with exquisite taste in games. A beacon of light in the middle of all the shootergame advertising,

my friends list had everyone playing black ops yesterday for a short time, i think most only played it for an hour and turned it off. i finaly think people are getting sick of these should be expansion packs every year. if you want some lulz go read the metacritic users reviews. at least they are not paid to give games high ratings

yeah like im going to believe halo surpass cod
besides i love halo i dont believe it can surpass cod
why microsoft why you modify the true list
im not going to buy halo well at least cod are not in every new console you buy
thats why is played is a gift in every console
- Hugoku
  
  Most popular games get charted on release week. Halo being Halo, it does not surprise me. We’ll see if it holds in the long run.
Z4M0

I guess if a game (or anything else for that matter) being “the most played” directly means that it’s good…
Hugoku

So we have Halo 4, Halo Reach and Halo 3 on the charts. COD MW3, MW2 and BLOPS. And next week we’ll have BLOPS 2. Plus Battlefield 2. That’ll be 40% of the list just FPS!

In any case, @MajorNelson:disqus would you be willing to bet on Halo 4 remaining on top next week?
Lee Rayson

Nice to see halo on top again
Hugoku

And Halo 3… just barely.

Is 10,000,000 microsoft points enough to buy the #1 spot?
pharmassist

wow, this is live before halo 4 launched??
that’s pretty darn awesome.

Toejam and Earl at #7? Nice to see a lot of nostalgia coming through.
