The Modern Warfare 2 effect













It's to be expected that a lot of people will be playing a AAA title like Modern Warfare 2 as soon as it's released. However, the impact of a title like this has never been quantified before. Gamerbytes.com took a look at the concurrent players online figures for some popular XBLA titles prior to the release date and as you can see, there's been a dramatic drop over the last 2 weeks.

It's cool to see that how one single game release can pull players away from another popular release. I fully expect this trend to reverse once people a) finish MW2 or b) get tired of playing MW2.

Many of the XBLA titles listed above are a great way to kill an hour or two and have a lot of fun. (Except for TRIALS HD... minimum play time I would guess is more than an couple of hours AT LEAST! lol)
