OXM must have too much time on its hands. So much so that the guys can sit around, after deadline, staring a blank lobby screens in a variety of games to see who's playing what and more importantly who's not playing what. Surely everyone can't be playing Call of Duty 4 and Halo 3.

The website asks what happens to the lesser known games as time marches on and the smaller games are squeezed off the shelves.

Do the communities live on? Do the hardcore refuse to let go? Do newcomers to Xbox Live wander into empty lobbies and try to figure out why nothing is working?

Hit this link for a list of games that have deserted, empty lobbies.

That link doesn't give you a list of games that have been deserted. It gives you a handful of games that they tried out and after waiting a while some people did turn up.

I didn't expect F.E.A.R. had this problem. That FIFA game was expected, people already moved to the last sequel.
