Battlefield 2 is Number 1?  by Craig D at 11:16

PC
This story on Voodoo Extreme show some interesting GameSpy stats, that for for a few minutes at least showed Battlefield 2 as being played by more people than Counter-Strike.

1. Battlefield 2 5602 servers, 31297 players
2. Half Life 2 10661 servers, 29028 players
3. Half Life 14988 servers, 28820 players
4. Call of Duty 6379 servers, 9000 players
5. Unreal Tournament 2004 2633 servers, 6414 players

Valves own Steam stats still show Counter-Strike as being much more popular.

Maybe for a few minutes at least, people realised counter strike is crap.

Not all that suprising I dont think, there is always a high point when a popular new online game comes out. What will be more interesting is how many people play it after 6-12 months.

How long has counter-strike been out for though? and so many people are still playing it. I'd like to see any other game keep people's interest for that long.
