Minecraft beats Black Ops on Xbox Live's most played list

4.5
Call of Duty: Black Ops has been forced to take a no doubt temporary back step on the list of most played Xbox Live games thanks to Minecraft.

CoD games usually consistently dominate the top two spots of Xbox Live's most popular games. But while Modern Warfare 3 still has a firm hold of the top spot, the second-place seat has been stolen by Mojang and their cult-turned-popular crafting hit.
The Xbox 360 Edition sold over a million copies in less than a week on sale, breaking all previous Xbox LIVE Arcade digital sales records in the process.

Here's the list of Live's most played games for the week of May 14:

1)Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

2)Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition

3)Call of Duty: Black Ops

4)FIFA 12

5)Battlefield 3

6)Halo: Reach

7)Modern Warfare 2

8)NBA 2K12

9)Skyrim

10)Gears of War 3

11)GTA IV

12)Forza Motorsport 4

13)Max Payne 3

14)Trials Evolution

15)Mass Effect 3

16)NHL12

17)Madden NFL 12

18)Halo 3

19)Red Dead Redemption

20)Saints Row: The Third
