Minecraft threatens Call of Duty domination on Xbox Live chart
Mojang hit has more players than FIFA, Battlefield, Halo, Skyrim.
Minecraft was the third most played game on Xbox Live last week, Microsoft has announced.
The only games to boast more worldwide unique users were Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops.
Mojang's indie phenomenon raced past chart mainstays Battlefield 3, FIFA 12 and Halo Reach in its first week on sale.
Further down the chart, Trials: Evolution continues to put in a very respectable performance for an XBLA title, nestled at 12.
Here's the full top 20, as posted by Microsoft community man Major Nelson:
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
- Call of Duty: Black Ops
- Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition

Unsurprisingly, given the fact that it's already sold over a million units, Minecraft was also top of the Xbox Live Arcade sales chart, unseating last week's leader The Walking Dead, which fell to three.
Trials Evolution climbed to two, Fable Heroes held steady at four, closely followed by Fez at five.
