Fun Facts
I need to share something fun and cheery now. And even though many can't get in, many have and played a lot of games already.

* On Day 1 there were 29.45 years of gameplay completed on Xbox 360
* Over 5 millions kills in the first day!

Crunched the numbers. If its true that the game has pulled out 29.45 years of gameplay on the first day, that means (on average of a 365 day year)

A. 10749.25 people would have had to play the entire day or...
B. 21498.5 people would have had to play half the day or...
C. 257982 people would have had to play for an hour.

In Total, this means 257982 hours of gameplay played the first day or 10,749.25 days of gameplay played the first day.

IDK why i did that, just seems interesting. Yay.

Please proceed to the nearest exit in an orderly fashion and shut the door as you leave. There is nothing for you to see here.

Interesting. Wasn't there a figure batted around somewhere that about 80,000 people played the game on the first day? (or at least tried to...)

Failbox? Let the numbers speak for themselves.

Don't be mad because no one plays the PS3.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised about the PS3 numbers, expected the player count to be much lower than half the 360 players. Either way, it meant I was able to play on release day without any server overloading issues
