Xbox 360 Edition surpasses Modern Warfare 3 and FIFA 13

There's no escaping the mines. Last week Minecraft's Xbox 360 Edition came out on top of the Xbox Live Activity Charts for the first time ever, surpassing heavy hitters like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and FIFA 13.

Minecraft is the greatest selling XBLA game ever, with 4 million sales reported as of the end of September. The long-awaited "Adventure Update," which graced the original PC version nearly a year ago, hit the console last week.

Meanwhile, Minecraft: Pocket Edition is No. 1 on Android's Google Play store and No. 9 on the iOS App Store's lists of best-selling paid apps. And we're still looking for Herobrine.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
