It is already known that Skyrim sold a whopping 3.5 Million copies in its first two days, which may not seem like much for a AAA title, but for an RPG of this sort that is mighty impressive. So, it may be no wonder that after so many people were playing it while logged in to the Xbox Live service last week. Below is the full list of the top 20 games played by Xbox Live users. Skyrim ranks third and Battlefield 3 follows right behind in fourth.

What’s most surprising is that Modern Warfare 2 has surpassed both Halo: Reach and Saints Row: The Third. Even more surprising is that the year old Black Ops is strongly placed at number 2. People sure do love their Call of Duty, so it’s no wonder why Activision is milking the franchise dry.
