Battlefield 3 passes Modern Warfare 2 on Xbox Live activity chart

But can't topple Black Ops.

Battlefield 3 moved past Modern Warfare 2 to become the second most played game on Xbox Live last week.

DICE's shooter improved on its third place debut the week prior, but couldn't take down Call of Duty: Black Ops, which clings on at number one. With Modern Warfare 3 now out in the wild it seems unlikely Battlefield will be able to disrupt Call of Duty's perennial domination of the Xbox Live activity chart.

Here's the full top 20, as seen on Major Nelson's blog:

  1. Call of Duty: Black Ops
  2. Battlefield 3
  3. Modern Warfare 2
  4. Gears of War 3
  5. FIFA 12
