Now Introducing: The Escapist's Top Games!

Do you ever wrack your brain at night trying to figure out what games the Escapist community is enjoying on Steam, PSN, and Xbox Live?? Well, wrack no longer - just peek at the Escapist's Top Games list!

The Top Games list can be found here, and pulls data automatically from the Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, and Steam profiles linked in your own user profile - so if you haven't updated your information already, what's taking you so long?

The top ten Xbox 360 games is really nothing surprising, being essentially all the system's top games:

1 Halo 3
2 Call of Duty 4
3 Call of Duty: WaW
4 Batman: Arkham Asylum
5 Gears of War 2
6 Left 4 Dead
7 Fallout 3
8 Rock Band 2
9 GTA IV
10 Mass Effect

Whereas we get some more diversity on Steam (looks like all our Valve fanboys take a break every now and then to play Killing Floor or Audiosurf):

1 Team Fortress 2
2 Left 4 Dead
3 Counter-Strike: Source
4 Garry's Mod
5 Audiosurf
6 Half-Life 2
7 Killing Floor
8 Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II
9 Portal
10 Source SDK

But it's the PS3 list that just astounds me. Yeah, you have big titles like LittleBigPlanet and Call of Duty 5, but... Noby Noby Boy? Really? Huh. I guess you guys have some strange tastes, PS3 fans:

1 Call of Duty®: World at War
2 Linger In Shadows™
3 SUPER STARDUST™ HD
4 LittleBigPlanet™
5 GTA IV
6 inFamous
7 NOBY NOBY BOY™
8 Battlefield 1943™
9 PAIN
10 echochrome™

There you have it. Some surprising, some not-so surprising. But it's hard to get accurate data without a sufficiently large sample size, so add your profile data. Right now. I can wait.
