I am curious though what the numbers are for each region (average). | ||

Based on xfire, LoL is actually the most played game on the world, by far (doubled hours played per day than second place). http://www.xfire.com/games/# Of course it's only a sample but not a bad one to show of percentages. | ||

We all know LoL has 'more' players, but we don't have numbers like we have from valve. We only have massaged data, so comparing is kind of silly. As for HoN, there's a site that shows a graph of the player numbers like we have for Dota but I don't remember where it is. When I last checked it was around 40k during EU peak and like 120k during SEA peak. | ||

Actually that only counts europe and NA and only people that use xfire which changes from gaming community to gaming community. So it's a really bad way to measure which game is more or less played. | ||

It only counts NA and europe, which is less than half the actual worlds population and xfire, as already mentioned, is popular in certain gaming communites and non-existant in others. Ontop of that xfire also counts time where your client is simply open as time used playing and due to the nature of the LoL client having it open is common regardless of playing, i mean i do the same for DotA2. Statistics and be twisted. | ||

With the global warming it's probably quite habitable soon enough. Denmark should send settlers there, create millions of babies and become a new superpower.  | ||

And considering the population is a lot smaller then that of the aforementioned islands - in addition to it being more remote, I don't see how his statement can be construed as any kind of ignorance. The fact that you project onto him your prejudices about Americans is quite the cherry on top. | ||
