Minecraft beats Black Ops on Xbox Live's most played list for the week of May 14

[Heisenberg]

Call of Duty: Black Ops has been forced to take a no doubt temporary back step on the list of most played Xbox Live games thanks to Minecraft. CoD games usually consistently dominate the top two spots of Xbox Live's most popular games. But while Modern Warfare 3 still has a firm hold of the top spot, the second-place seat has been stolen by Mojang and their cult-turned-popular crafting hit. The Xbox 360 Edition sold over a million copies in less than a week on sale, breaking all previous Xbox LIVE Arcade digital sales records in the process.

Here's the list of Live's most played games for the week of May 14:
1) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
2) Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
3) Call of Duty: Black Ops
4) FIFA 12
5) Battlefield 3
6) Halo: Reach
7) Modern Warfare 2
8) NBA 2K12
9) Skyrim
10) Gears of War 3
11) GTA IV
12) Forza Motorsport 4
13) Max Payne 3
14) Trials Evolution
15) Mass Effect 3
16) NHL12
17) Madden NFL 12
18) Halo 3
19) Red Dead Redemption
20) Saints Row: The Third

That's hilarious, didn't think it was possible but since it was released just recently of course they're going to be high. MW3 is just keeping the top spot warm until Halo 4 hits..

All I can say is this - YES! FUCK... YOU... COD!

I screw around on the Beta version of Minecraft and find it a great way to kill time if bored. I have hated COD for so long and I absolutely love seeing this, regardless of the fact I don't play XBOX.

Well done, world!
