Bungie\'s first-person shooter for the Xbox becomes the first console game to grace iGames\' list of most popular multiplayer games



i doubt certain aspects about the testing become accurate
 they probably polled a bunch of college students to see what
online game they\'re playing

regardless, halo is a cool game that deserves to be played online WITHOUT paying m$ a frickin cent

im very curious to see how it fares next month

I can\'t believe there are enough people playing online Halo (such as it is) to be that high on the list.  There is some manipulation of the stats there I\'m sure.

That\'s from June.  You can expect to see WC3 on top 3 for the next few months, for a while longer even.  Until World of Warcraft comes out, even then tho, Blizzard will own like 5 spots.

The list above ranks games according to popularity at more than 150 game centers across North America.


Uhh.. exactly how do they tell how much a game is played online from game centers?

They must be going by sales, in that Case THPS3 for ps2 should be on that list.. halo is not even offically an online title... very strange list

It works like this:

Halo IS an online game (sort of). It\'s just that since Xbox Live is coming out a full year afterwards, Bungie decided that it isn\'t worth it to fully develope the online feature. What you can do is have a LAN party with Xbox and some gaming centers can simulate a LAN party to allow online gaming for Halo. Look closely at some of the maps as they support far more than 4 players (I\'ve some could go as high as 32. Any confirmation on this?)
