The 2012 saw the release of many caliber titles. At the top of the preferences of players include Call of Duty: Black Ops II , who despite his departure in November dominates the ranking of most titles played on Xbox LIVE during the year.

In second place we find then Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 3 , more predictable result given that was played throughout the year; to follow in third and fourth position we find Minecraft , pixel-game by 4J Studios who continues to have no rivals among Xbox LIVE Arcade titles, and Halo 4 , the long-awaited chapter on Master Chief's return from 343 Industries that has certainly not disappointed our expectations.

Finally, a special mention goes to Halo: Reach , Gears of War 3 , Battlefield 3 and Grand Theft Auto IV which, despite being on the market for over 2 and a half years, fall in the ranking of most titles played by users connected to Xbox LIVE in 2012, demonstrating how a well-made title can have a very long life.
