The numbers are in: Xbox 360 LIVE activity for Week 7/30

It’s always nice to find out what your fellow gamers are playing the most over at Xbox Live, and courtesy of Major Nelson, we give you the opportunity to do exactly that in this week’s chart of Live Activity for the week of 7/30. Let’s take a gander at the top spots before working our way down the other contenders, shall we?

For Microsoft‘s next-gen console, we have Gears of War taking the Number 1 spot this week, with other greats such as Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas and Guitar Hero II following closely behind. For top Xbox Live Arcade titles – the full versions, mind you – Bomberman Live is at the top of the heap, Spyglass Board Games as second and Halo‘s grandpappy, Marathon: Durandal coming up in third. And finally, for Original Xbox Live games, Halo 2 rules supreme over classics like Battlefield 2 and Star Wars: Battlefront 2.

One thing to note here is that Halo 2 is still going strong – understatement of the year, perhaps, as the short-lived Halo 3 Beta test really got armchair Spartans back into a Covenant-wasting mood, as well as get some quality time with its predecessor Marathon: Durandal. Certainly good news that the popularity of a contemporary game gives attention to titles almost forgotten by time.

In any case, here’s the complete list, for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
