chart success!

August 6, 2005 on 2:58 pm | In Games | No Comments


Not that I want to blow my own trumpet too much – but I was very
pleased to see that the game I just finished working on, the Xbox
version of Delta Force: Black Hawk Down, has moved up to number 2 in
the Xbox Live chart. Wahey!

I’m not sure what exactly the chart tracks, but I think its number of
people playing the game online. To be honest, I very much doubt that
Halo 2 will ever be knocked off the no 1 spot – the multiplayer part of
the game is extremely slick and enjoyable, and they have an impressively detailled
web site
for the obsessive stat tracker. So to get to number 2 behind
Halo is as much success as I could hope for, and is a credit to all the
hard work and late nights that my colleagues (and I) put in, for many
months, finishing the game off.

I wonder how long it’s going to stay there? This is only the second
week of being in the chart, after entering at no. 3 — I hear that
sales are still going strong and that they’ve had to order more from
the factory, so fingers crossed!
