Mortal Kombat cracks XBL usage top 10

While Outland tops XBLA chart.

Mortal Kombat is the only game released in 2011 to feature in the latest Xbox Live usage top 10, according to last week's global unique user chart.

A data dump on Major Nelson's blog showed that the old guard of Call of Duty: Black Ops, Modern Warfare 2 and Halo Reach occupy the top three spots for the week of 2nd May.

Mortal Kombat, which launched on 21st April, is down in seventh place.

A few other 2011 titles feature further down the list: Portal 2 at 12 and Bulletstorm at 18. THQ's Homefront is rather conspicuous in its absence.
