Ó
Microsoft has once again released a report about Xbox Live usage, and it's quite an interesting read. According to it, Xbox Live users have downloaded content from the Marketplace 50 Million times now, an impressive number especially if you take into consideration that the 25 Million mark was reached just three months ago.Also noteworthy is the fact that users unlocked 600,000 Madden NFL 07 achievements and hosted more than 2 million hours of online play via Xbox Live since the game was released on August 22.
Texas Hold 'Em comes up with similarly incredible stats, making the record as the fastest downloaded item ever on the Xbox Live Marketplace, with over 100 downloads per minute in the first 24 hours of the titleÂ’s release.
To top it off, we have a few additional statistics to go over...
