COD: WaW tops Xbox Live charts, while Gears 2 slips

The release of the first DLC map pack for Call of Duty: World at War, and a double XP week, has helped the popular shooter regain the number 1 position on the Xbox Live activity charts for the week of March 16.

Following close behind is Halo 3, which should pose a strong challenge to COD: WaW with the release of the Mythic map pack early next month. Resident Evil 5 has jumped even higher, going as far as to knock Gears of War 2 into fifth position. One title which isn't present this week is Street Fighter IV, which was KO'd by Guitar Hero World Tour.

On the arcade side, Peggle holds firm as the most downloaded arcade game on Xbox Live (and for good reason), while it doesn't look like EA's Hasbro Famly Game Night made an impact with gamers, with none of their titles making it into the top 10. Perhaps the pricing had something to do with it?!

A new title tops the Community Games side, and thankfully it doesn't involve adjusting the vibration on your controller. Red Box Reality - Fading Memories is an exercise in co-ordination as you try and "prolong the life of a person undergoing mental attacks"... I guess in the same way Panado does?
