Minecraft tops Modern Warfare 3 as most played on Xbox LIVE

Major Nelson has released the latest Xbox LIVE activity, revealing Minecraft as the most played for the week of October 15.

Based on Unique Users, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has finally overthrown Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 as the most played. Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition launched earlier this year, setting records in both sales and activity. Earlier this month it surpassed 4 million copies sold. This is the first time it's the number one title on Xbox LIVE however.

And with 4J Studios releasing constant updates and skin packs, I don't think it'll slow down in popularity any time soon. Jus last week, 4J Studios released a massive update with tons of new content including the eagerly-awaited Creative Mode.

Of course, with Black Ops 2 releasing next month, it'll be interesting to see if Minecraft can hold off another sure-to-be-solid seller from Activision.

Below is the latest Xbox LIVE activity for hte week of October 15, 2012:
