GTA IV Claims Top Spot On Xbox Live

From the Obvious Files comes news that Grand Theft Auto IV has unseated Xbox Live chart topper Call of Duty 4 as the title with the most unique users on the service. That's a lot of dead pedestrians! Liberty City has never heard this many racial slurs and synonyms for "homosexual" in such a short timeframe, we guarantee it. Former Live activity darling Halo 3 settles for third place from April 28 to May 5—and we predict for months to come—as the GTA IV masses flood the service in its debut week.

Taking the number one spot in the Xbox Live Arcade top ten? Brain Challenge! Who didn't see that one coming? Probably someone who was unaware that Brain Challenge was released, just like me.

Brains And Bliss On XBLA Wednesday

Brain training comes to the Xbox Live Arcade this week in the form of Gameloft's creatively named Brain Challenge, 800 Microsoft points worth of brain exercises for children and adults, complete with multiplayer support for up to four players both online and off, and a special Creative Mode that allows you to relax and explore your imagination, a practice men generally relegate to the bathroom. Along with the brain games comes Bliss Island, a 400 Microsoft point game by Codemasters, which puts you in control of Hoshi the Zwooph, a strange blue creature with the power to blow clouds out of it's snout. Not just any clouds - puzzle solving clouds. Yes, this week is all about making you smarter and then letting you show off your newfound wits. Both games will be available early Wednesday morning.
