Quote:In the first quarter of 2013, Valve Software's Dota 2 passed Riot Games' League of Legends as the most played "core" PC title, according to a report from DFC Intelligence. The report covers PC gaming in North America and Europe based on the DFC Intelligence PC Game Meter service

Well that's unexpected. Although, they don't reveal the actual numbers or how this was measured, so i'm not sure what to really see this as. If we counted people still playing dota1 then i wouldn't doubt it at all, but they're excluding the east + dota1 isn't a part of the numbers.

Gonna wait for more information to surface before really creating my own stance on this. Right now, to me anyway, this is as credible as when someone used x-fire statistics to claim which games were the most played. Which is to say, not very credible to me.
