<p>For SL, it was 499 per week in the March 2012 lists, and has sunk to 401 minutes on the April chart. (I.E. from about 8.5 hours a week, to just under 7 hours a week.)"</p>
<p>My own data doesn't support this, but given how tiny Nielsen's sample set is, their numbers are understandable.<br />
The average I'm seeing per avatar is in the low 600's minutes/wk (some viewers are much higher though), up from around 500 and something a year ago. Note that is per avatar and not per user or per "household".</p>Amanda Dallin commented on 'Second Life Stays on Nielsen's Latest Top 10 Played PC Games & Increases Total Share, Engagement'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0167689245fd970b2012-07-17T17:04:49Z2012-07-17T17:04:49ZAmanda DallinSim xings have been better for sometime now but I understand we might have sim xing issues for a while...<p>Sim xings have been better for sometime now but I understand we might have sim xing issues for a while until all of SL is on a server version with the new version of Havoc for path finding. Going from a server with one version of Havoc to one with another version could cause problems.</p>foneco zuzu commented on 'Second Life Stays on Nielsen's Latest Top 10 Played PC Games & Increases Total Share, Engagement'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef017616864947970c2012-07-17T14:03:03Z2012-07-17T14:03:03Zfoneco zuzuhttp://sl9b.wordpress.com/And if one may recall, the fact that now at least sim crossings seems to be really solved (I did...<p> And if one may recall, the fact that now at least sim crossings seems to be really solved (I did a fly yesterday across black sea at low level, at 100 speed, with my soulmate and we didn't crash once, even after more then 50 sims crossed) it will make a lot more enjoy some of the unknown beauties of SL, to explore mainland by boat or plane or bike or whatever!<br />
And those explorers are not a minority!</p>foneco zuzu commented on 'Second Life Stays on Nielsen's Latest Top 10 Played PC Games & Increases Total Share, Engagement'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0176168620ea970c2012-07-17T13:24:25Z2012-07-17T13:24:25Zfoneco zuzuhttp://sl9b.wordpress.com/:)<p>:)</p>Hitomi Tiponi commented on 'Second Life Stays on Nielsen's Latest Top 10 Played PC Games & Increases Total Share, Engagement'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0177436906ce970d2012-07-16T23:27:56Z2012-07-16T23:27:56ZHitomi TiponiWhy does it take Nielsen two and a half months to issue these figures - or are they issued to...<p>Why does it take Nielsen two and a half months to issue these figures - or are they issued to 'premium' subscribers earlier?</p>Amanda Dallin commented on 'Second Life Stays on Nielsen's Latest Top 10 Played PC Games & Increases Total Share, Engagement'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef01774369066e970d2012-07-16T23:27:32Z2012-07-16T23:27:32ZAmanda Dallin"...so my guess is this reflects a seasonal change, as the real world (at least in the West) gets warmer,...<p>"...so my guess is this reflects a seasonal change, as the real world (at least in the West) gets warmer, and outdoor fun becomes a more viable alternative."</p>
<p>I think you mean at least in the Northern Hemisphere, since East/West has nothing to do with Seasons.</p>Ener Hax commented on 'Second Life Stays on Nielsen's Latest Top 10 Played PC Games & Increases Total Share, Engagement'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0167688d9553970b2012-07-16T21:35:14Z2012-07-16T21:35:14ZEner Haxhttp://iliveisl.comSL is a game imo, or at least i viewed it that way - the goal being to win real...<p>SL is a game imo, or at least i viewed it that way - the goal being to win real money and fill your estate with happy customers</p>
