    Last week, we were surprised to see Rainbow Six Vegas all the way down at #7 on the Xbox Live charts. Considering Vegas has more online options than most shooters out there, it was a little strange to see it so low on the list (even lower than the Superman demo). Well, someone at Ubisoft must have gotten their wings this week, because Vegas shot up to #3. It looks like all the people who played the demo (it was #8 last week) decided to go ahead and buy it. Congratulations, Mr. Clancy. Rounding out the top 5, Gears of War maintains the #1 spot, Call of Duty 3 takes #2 again, the Lost Planet multiplayer demo remains at #4, and Madden gains a rank to hit #5. As for the rest, Small Arms, so far enjoying a great run in the top 10, has fallen all they way to #10. Last week's Arcade release, RoboBlitz, debuts at #6. Call of Duty 2 moves up two spots to claim #7, as does Oblivion to claim #8, and finally, GRAW makes it back onto the list at #9. Below is the top 10 in a handy list format. Each title is followed by its position in last week's top ten.Xbox 360 Titles for the week of 12/4:1. Gears of War (#1)2. Call Of Duty 3 (#2)3. Rainbow Six Vegas (#7)4. LOST PLANET OnlineDemo (#4)5.

    Just two weeks ago, we found out that Gears of War had accomplished the impossible by knocking Halo 2 off of the number one Live spot. That lead held for a second week, and now it has solidified itself into the top spot yet again, three weeks running. Rounding out the rest of the top ten is an interesting mix. Call of Duty 3 rests comfortably at number two, Small Arms is in third (very impressive for an arcade title), while Rainbow Six Vegas -- a game teeming with online features -- lands all the way down at number seven. Curiously, there are three demos in the top ten, and if the Lost Planet demo is any indication of its future popularity -- it's in fourth place -- Capcom looks to have a hit on its hands. Meanwhile, the rest of the list is filled in with staples Madden (#6), Call of Duty 2 (#9), and Oblivion (#10).Xbox 360 Titles for the week of 11/27:1 Gears of War2 Call Of Duty 33 Small Arms4 LOST PLANET OnlineDemo5 SUPERMAN DEMO6 Madden NFL 077 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas8 Rainbow Six Vegas Multi Player Demo9 Call of Duty 210 OblivionSo, are you rocking any of these games, or are you one of the guys still playing Counter-Strike on the original Xbox?[Thanks, un1qu3 n3wy0rk]
