Here’s your top 10 retail games for the last week, based on unique users connected to Xbox LIVE across ANZ.
This list looks a lot different than last time I posted! Such a great time of year. We get so many awesome games through these holiday months.

Yeah, I know the Insider Tour is kind of awesome. Believe me, it’s what we’re focusing on here as well. But you know what else is deserving of attention? Games! Specifically, the games you guys play. And without further ado, here are the retail games you all played the most last week while connected to Xbox LIVE.
I have to be honest, it warms my heart that Fallout 3 continues to hold onto a spot in the top 10. The guys at Bethesda really made a gem with that one and it’s good to see so many people playing it still.

I know I’ve missed doing this last week. Sorry about that! Worth it though. I got to play ODST, Forza 3, Lips #1 Hits, Guitar Hero 5, DJ Hero… yeah, it was worth it. 
But now I”m back, so let’s see what we’ve got.

No real surprise that Madden is bigger overseas. Anyone here really follow NFL? I’m hearing good things about Batman: Arkham Asylum. Who’s planning on picking it up when it comes out later this week?

Bit late in the week for this, so I’ll just get right into it, shall I? As per usual, this list doesn’t distinguish between single- and multi-player sessions. It is determined by the unique users who play the title while connected to Xbox LIVE.

Look at World at War overtaking Halo 3 this week! I guess folks are liking the new maps!

Welcome to the top 10, Forza! Are you here because people are preparing for Forza 3? It’s not far off, after all.

This got lost in the pre-update craziness yesterday but it’s just as valid today!
We have a new Deal of the Week, this time for FIFA 09. Download the Ultimate Team free trial, then get the full version for 400 MS Points–50% off!
This one works a little differently than our usual Deal of the Week so I figure it’s worth breaking it down. The Ultimate Team trial is a free download. When you opt to upgrade from the trial to the full version, the cost for that will be 50% off if you’re a LIVE Gold member.
With FIFA 09 hanging around in the top 10 played games, I hope this is a useful Deal for lots of you gamers!

Since I’ll be sipping wine in the Hunter Valley the last half of this week instead of dutifully combing through reports (it’s tough, I know, but someone has to do it) I’m moving the top 10 up this week. Retail today, Arcade tomorrow.
And with that, let’s look at the top 10 retail games played by gamers connected to Xbox LIVE in the last week. Note that, as usual, this isn’t the amount of time played, but the number of unique users who played the title.

And Fable 2 continues its stint in the top 10, which is just as great as last week, and also just as puzzling. I still have no idea where all you Fable junkies are coming from. I’m glad I’m not alone in my Fable <3.

Look at that! Guitar Hero pops up on the global top 10. Looks like it’s creeping up there on Rock Band! Other than that, no real surprises. At least, nothing we haven’t seen before. It makes me feel so jaded.

It’s that time of the week again… time for us to take a look at what you played last week and raise an eyebrow whenever something weird pops up. As per usual, these are the games played by the most unique users connected to Xbox LIVE in the past week. This doesn’t distinguish between playing single-player and multi-player.

As thrilled as I am to see fellow Fable fans invading the top 10… what happened this week that I’m not aware of to propel it past [PROTOTYPE]? Did I miss something?

Left 4 Dead and UFC 2009 are becoming a pretty common difference between the regions, and as others have said the Rock Band/Guitar Hero comparison doesn’t really count. Still though… someone clue me in on the Fable 2 thing. Are we having a party?
