CoD 4 Hits 13 Million Unique Users on Xbox 360
The very popular game, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, now has 13,000,000 unique users just on the Xbox 360. Very impressive! A recent Yahoo article with a snippet below, pointed out this fact. Also, Robert Bowling, aka fourzerotwo, Infinity Ward's Community Manager had this to say in the article:
I truly hope that for once, that when the developer says they'll put the focus on mp, that they actually do it. IW did a good job with CoD4, do not misinterpret that, but many developers focus on sp and leave mp as an afterthought. Hopefully, more developers start following the examples of IW and Treyarch, and making mp the focus of their games.

"The thing we learned the most [from Modern Warfare 1] was how much focus goes into multiplayer," said Rob when asked about what the team has learned from the first game and will be carrying through to Modern Warfare 2.
"I mean, Call of Duty 4 on Xbox Live just exploded. Right now we're at 13 million unique users on 360 and that's insane.
"The focus that goes into multiplayer…and that's why community specifically, is such a tent pole for Modern Warfare 2."
