Something doesn't make sense here...

The average person only played their $60, 10/10, gotta-have game for only 4 hours in an entire week? There are 15 people on my friends list, and 11 of them are playing GTA right now... That just doesn't add up...

on xbox live. I spent all my time the first week mostly on single player.. just now getting into the live matches which are surprisingly decent and lag free so far.

got the game one day earlier than release from a friend who has a store, but was too afraid to try live and moved the day it came out. Just set my 360 up again and will finally get the chance to go online.
