Yes, in a perfect wimsical world everyone would play Halo and nobody would play Black Ops.... But, here in the real world, Black Ops is the most played game regardless of what console your on, and Minecraft is the second most played game for all the obvious reason (appeal to casual gamers, kids, and pure infinite fun). Halo is not on top... so what? Who said it would be? Its a great game, its in third, people are playing it... I fail to see the problem. Previous titles all I played was Big Team, and i still do most of the time, but I've come to appreciate the other game modes, mostly Dominion, and besides... there are no "real problems". just problems you think your having. Other ppl are playing just fine... as demonstrated by the numbers.

I would have to say its the fun.... and the competitiveness. I've been having some nailbighters, toe to toe matches that basically end in a draw and leave me goin WOOOHOOO. What more could I want? NOTHING I SAY!

http://halocharts.co...lpopulation/all Looks more like 53k atm., and it hasn't hit its peak yet for the day. And thats just at any one time, nevermind all the people who have played today. On an average day it gets as high as between 80k and 100k at peak time.... I dare say thats pretty damn good. Not to mention: http://www.digitalsp...charts.html?rss That it's third on the charts, behind only Black Ops II and Minecraft. Thats definitely not a bad thing... Just sayin! Ahh... seee, a different interpretation above ^^^ However, he forgets that comparing the numbers immediately after launch to the numbers today is redundant. Ahhhh, XBC, those were the days...

http://www.digitalspy.ca/gaming/news/a453025/black-ops-2-minecraft-top-2012-xbox-live-activity-charts.html?rss Looks to me like Halo is doing just fine... Sure, if you compare it to its own numbers immediately after launch its not going to look great... but compared to every other game on XBOX LIVE, Halo 4 i currently the third most played game. And considering the trends in that chart you posted, those numbers are easily sustainable. Apparently, not everyone is feeling betrayed... or whatever.

I use the BR, personally. I would say keep it as is, doesn't seem like a big issue to me. If you think the DRM is OP... use it?

I would love to see the numbers. As far as i can tell, tons of people are playing and the game is great. I've been enjoying it thoroughly... leagues ahead of reach.

Why not just play objective games in... not big team? Capflag is phenomenal, and Dominion is amazing. Plus you get to play the smaller maps, which is a welcome relief from the 3 maps in Big Team rotation. Halo 4 iz dope.

I dont use the DRM or boltshot, and I'm still the sh%t. bwahahahaha.......!!!!!

This game is amazing. That is all.

I've owned and been playing Xbox(s) since Microsoft graced me with its first console in 2001 (maybe 2000, its been a while....) I've been "killing machine" since 2001, when I beta tested the Xbox Live service. I will continue with Xbox until hell freezes over. I've also had Nintendos and Playstations.... but Xbox dominates my gaming existence. WOO HOOO

The answer is pretty plain & obvious. I've been "killing machine" since 2001, and i will FOREVER BE KILLING MACHINE!!!! GRAAHHHHH

What ever happened to gaming for the sake of fun?? If your going to mod, take your damn xbox offline!!!

You bought an Xbox last week to play the game... yet you've been playing the series for 10 years? ...either I'm missing something, or your spiel is 95% BS.
