Why am I dividing by who has online? They are the Halo owners delivering measurable statistics. The other half aren't connected so they can't be counted.

Actual usage? 1,020,000 unique players last 24 hours.

"It did it, Halo 3 broke a million players within the past 24 hours:


Unique Players (Last 24 Hours):
1,020,840"

So Halo 3 has 4,500,000 users total...That have played it online?  Does Halo 3 count guests as part of their 'unique users' online?  If so that could greatly skew the numbers.

 

Probably not, only people with Xbox Live accounts which have been activated on the net. If they log in as a guess then they can't be unique can they?

 

 

I don't know.  I've heard that they might.   That's why I asked.  Tecnhically Joe, Joe(1), Joe(2), Joe(3) would all be "unique" it depends on the definition.

I believe it tracks user I.Ds which have email addresses etc attached to them, I.E unique user I.Ds. If you have a 360 playing Halo 3 and Bob plays, he counts as one unique user. If bob and sally play but sally doesn't have an account registered on live, only Bob counts. If Bob and Mike play and they are both on Xbox Live, then both Bob and Mike count.

 



Tease.
