So, I got bored last night and decided to take a look at the achievement tracker here on Giant Bomb. One of the more interesting things about it to me is that it shows how many Giant Bomb members have played each title. Unfortunately, we can't sort information based on this statistic, so I dumped it over into Excel to sort it out. Now, this is just based on the 150+ games that I have played so it isn't all inclusive, and I didn't include the PS3 games from my list since it would skew the results seeing as trophies were tracked for such a short period of time. Here are some random facts I was able to pull out of the raw data. The results are somewhat depressing.

Halo 3 is the most played game with 27974.

Minesweeper Flags is the least played game with 253.

205 Giant Bomb members were a part of the Kinect Beta program last year. Don't tell anybody!

Only Halo 3 and Gears of War have been played by more people than Hexic HD.

Roughly 24% more people played the original Mass Effect than Mass Effect 2. I blame the Mako for scaring people away.

Shadow Complex is the most played XBLA title with 17269, which beats Castle Crashers by about 1500 players.

The number of players playing the Assassin's Creed franchise have fallen drastically from 22258 (AC1) to 18496 (AC2) to 9488 (ACB). That's a 57% drop between the first and third game.

A whopping 81% fewer people played Crackdown 2 than the original. And rightfully so.

Although it's still fairly early, 77% fewer people have played Dragon Age II than Origins.

And to continue the theme of lackluster sequels, 70% fewer people have played Fable III than Fable II.

In fact, I can't find a sequel that has more players than its predecessor. Even Modern Warfare 2 has about 1000 less than Call of Duty 4. Hell, even the Doritos games had a drop off from Dash of Destruction to Crash Course.

Despite being universally praised by reviews and being the only NBA game last year, NBA 2K11 has fewer players than NBA 2K9 and NBA 2K6.

Wanna know why Penny Arcade didn't get a third episode? While 3964 people played Episode 1, only 1510 have played Episode 2. Tycho redeemed himself though with the 3622 people who have played Poker Night at the Inventory.

More people have used the Rock Band Music Store than have played Rock Band 3. So sad.

Thanks to the XBLA release of Torchlight, now over 10000 Giant Bomb members have played the game.

Currently, there are 45 games on my list with over 10000 players. Bayonetta would need 103 more people to be the 46th.

More people have played Fable II Pub Games (4932) than Monday Night Combat, Rock Band 3, or Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Call of Duty 2 (10939) is the most played Xbox 360 launch title, just barely beating out Perfect Dark Zero (10296) and Project Gotham Racing 3 (9392).

There are 1565 people unable to hide the fact that they played DOA Xtreme 2 (myself included). Attaining ONE achievement in that game earns you a B ranking though.
