My God...
The first game to top Halo 2's online popularity since launch.

This is a pretty monumental event.
And Gears of War will remain tops right about until the Halo 3 demo hits, I imagine, when H2 interest will skyrocket again.

dont do "quick match" try "find custom match" instead and then joing a game that has like 4-7 people you will get in almost every time.

9 - Where does it say?

I don't see where it says that it beat out halo 2. It just says that it is the most played 360 live game but it does not show official #'s or games played versus Halo 2.

11 - quick match

i do quick match and get in most every time. you have to hit "x" for refresh and it give you another few games you can join, usually the 2-4 or 5th game i can always join, also look games with less people in them.

13 - CONFUSION

I dont understand why everyone think that halo2 is out of it. yes to me GoW is oe of the best games and yes i does deserve the spot but why does everyone think Halo2 is gone for good. has anyone stop to think that the reason that gears is number 1 is because it just came out like a week ago and evryone just wants to see what the game is about. And gamers for the record i am a HUDGE Gears fan

13.1 -

true, but I don't think anybody is saying Halo 2 is dead really, we're just happy it got knocked off the most played spot for a change. I play it every now and then, but let's face it, the multiplayer is bloody irritating. A bunch of hyperactive people running around blasting away with whatever power weapon they're carrying screaming how awesome they are. That, or American beer swilling rednecks playing together thinking they're some kind of strategic genius' for picking off players using double teaming. If you go into matchmaking on your own, chances are you wont be coordinating with the other players, since you don't know them, it's no big achievment doubleteaming a group of people who can't work together.

16.1 - Very cool link :)

I'll start off by saying that I love my 360, but I personally think PS3/Sony is going to end up selling more units in the end. You just can't deny the massive install base that they already have, coupled with the fact that the machine itself is amazing. But with that being said when you look at the PS3 and the 360 for just GAMING purposes, and forget all the bells and whistles(HD-DVD, BLU-RAY, backwards compatibility, media playback..etc) I think the 360 comes out on top. And the reason why I say that is because of the GAMES, the 360 just has the better games now and that are going to be released for at least the next couple years. In the end both the 360 and the PS3 are supposed to be GAMING consoles right?
