Skyrim Becomes Third Most Popular Game On Xbox 360

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is not a multiplayer game but this hasn’t stopped it being the third most played game on Xbox LIVE.

According to the latest data released on Major Nelson, Skyrim is the third most played Xbox 360 game behind Black Ops and Modern Warfare 3. The list is usually bombarded with shooting games so it comes as a nice surprise something different makes it on the list.

The data tracks games that are being played when you log onto Xbox LIVE so not every game has to be a multiplayer one. I usually play offline altogether when I play single player games but other users may want to stay in touch with their online friends.

3-Skyrim
