Who would have seen it coming. Halo 3 is the most played game on XBL for the week of November 24th.
This could be due to a number of reasons. Broken Matchmaking for Gears 2, COD players are now split between two games or the drop in price of the Legendary Map pack for Halo 3.
Whatever the reason Master Chief has taken back the top spot.

After a recent earnings call, Activision outlined plans to release a new entry into the Call of Duty series by the end of its 2009 fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2009. "We'll launch on all four platforms we've participated on in fiscal [year] 2008," Activision Publishing CEO Mike Griffith said, refering to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare's debut on the Xbox 360, PS3, PC and Nintendo DS; a PS2 and Wii version are also in the works.
Griffith also revealed that Call of Duty 5 will see the franchise move into a new "military theater." Long-standing suspicion has been that Call of Duty 3 developer Treyarch would return the franchise to its World War II roots but Griffith's comments seem to debunk that setting rumor. Griffith did not mention whether Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare developer Infinity Ward or rumored Treyarch would take the reins as the Call of Duty 5 developer.
On the subject of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Griffith revealed the James Bond licensed title that is currently in development by Treyarch will be powered by the CoD4 engine and release around the time of the latest Bond film, Quantum of Solace, this fall.
The only question to answer now is which war could Call of Duty 5 be based on. The answer? Civil. Muskets = Win.
The first real game play footage has hit the net for Madden o9 and i must say if this clip is a testament to the rest of the game i will just edit my players for Madden 08 on the Xbox 1 and skip it this year.
With the madden name getting so big that it has no real competition it would seem they have stopped bothering to make any real innovative moves and with no real NFL games to go against it they wont need to.
Since my opinion is not the sites opinion have a look at this footage and see if you can spot the things that separate 08 from 09.
I might be wrong here but is it really to much to ask that the Madden franchise (the franchise with all the money and big names) put out a game that really changes it up and makes the fans stop in there tracks and say "damn thats nice" in the same way Call Of Duty 4 made you forget what Call Of Duty 3 even looked like?
With all this out there I'm sure the true Madden fans will keep on buying the game and be happy with a new way to train your team or a new way to be the team coach but the same way salt will make a slight change to your mashed potatoes Madden is the same game it has been for some time now and my mashed potatoes are still just mashed potatoes, just saltier.
I know that I'm coming down harsh on this one but i feel that by now it should be so much more and if you feel that I'm wrong pleas post in the forum and let me know why, or just call me names.
