Do you have a source for that? Everything I found just said the total userbase hit 65 million, not the active userbase. Regardless, Xbox Live with 48 million users is doing quite well. My points stands, it's dickish of Gabe to downplay Microsoft's achievement in order to hype Steam, even Sony congratulated Microsoft when the Xbox One passed 2 million (they might have congratulated them yesterday on passing 3 million, I didn't check). |
There are plenty that specify active users.

I'll see if I can find where I saw Valve's definition of an active user again.
