That seems kind of low, I would have expected a higher number. So that means on an average week only 13% of 360 players sign in.

If the time span was increased the number would go up, I would be interested in the average for a month.

Lol Sony fans really need to try harder.

You think this is low ? >40m people in the last 8 months is not enough ?

Not everyone wants Xbox Live.

...what? 

9.4 million people per week / 70 million consoles sold = 13% of the install base logs into Live per week.  In my opinion that number seems low.  I have always thought Live had quite a significant number of its users online due to how popular it is.  Guess I was wrong.


You expect 70 million users to play on 70 million currenly sold 360s?



Yay!!!

No not 100%, I was actually expecting Live to have maybe 40% of users on in a given month, maybe drop that down to 35% during any given week. So 25 million users.

Compared to LoL's number, any other online statistic pales in comparison.

Free to play. A 50$ Pc can run it.~

Do the maths.

a $50 pc cannot run it on full res. Either way, that's what MS gets for sticking to subs.

I agree with some of the other users I was expect alot more than 13% I would have thought AT LEAST 25% or though come to think of it most my xbox friends don't use live cause they can't be bothered paying the fees.

40m LIVE accounts. ~60% Gold members, so 24m people who could actually play games over XBL.

Well LoL is just growing at an incredible rate.

12 million people log on daily.

Anyways I don't want to detract from the thread. I'm not to sure what to make of these numbers, I honestly would have thought they would have been higher, but 9 million is a lot of people.

9 million? That is actually a rather high number for a online console. Proud to be one of those 9.4 million.
