Posted on Thursday, June 23 @ 07:09:30 Eastern by


It's more than halfway through 2011, and we're still playing last year's games. According to statistics based on unique users posted on Major Nelson's blog, the Top 10 Xbox 360 LIVE titles were all released in 2010, 2009, 2008. and even 2007. Only four titles (asterisked) made the Top 20, two of which are at the bottom of the list and close to being knocked off soon.

1. Call of Duty: Black Ops (November 9, 2010)
2. Modern Warfare 2 (November 10, 2009)
3. Halo: Reach (September 14, 2010)
4. FIFA Soccer 11 (September 28, 2010)
5. NBA 2K11 (October 5, 2010)
6. GTA IV (April 29, 2008)
7. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (March 2, 2010)
8. Halo 3 (September 25, 2007)
9. Call of Duty 4 (November 5, 2007)
10. Gears of War 2 (November 7, 2008)
11. Call of Duty: World at War (November 11, 2008)
12. Red Dead Redemption (May 18, 2010)
13. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood (November 16, 2010)
***14. L.A. Noire (May 17, 2011)
15. Forza Motorsport 3 (October 27, 2009)
16. NHL 11 (September 7, 2010)
***17. Homefront - Multiplayer Demo (March 15, 2011)
18. Fallout: New Vegas (October 19, 2010)
***19. Mortal Kombat (April 19, 2011)
***20. Duke Nukem Forever (June 10, 2011)

It's difficult not to be slightly pessimistic about this... but the list will likely (and hopefully) shift later this year once the sequels for many of the mentioned games are released.

    It's not like there are a lot of new games coming out right now, it's just not the season for it. It's not particularly surprising to see people playing older games in the off season.
