Xbox Live's Major Nelson has today confirmed that Halo 3 was the most played title for 360s connected to Live for the week beginning July 14th. This is slightly unexpected as Call of Duty 4 has been dominating the top ten most played list for a while, keeping Bungie's flagship title at bay.

Maybe the new free map Cold Storage has helped to contribute to the surge, or the unfortunate self-destruction of Bungie's E3 presence brought Halo players back from their slumber. Whatever the reason, it's going to have a very tough fight on it's hands to retain the top position. Also interesting is the fact that the Too Human demo has gone in the most played charts at number seven, despite mixed views about it, but perhaps that could be due to the various meltdowns poor Dennis Dyack has had to put up with lately. Here's the full top ten list at Majornelson.
