Trials HD nominations and awardssebbbi said:GamerBytes released a year 2009 Xbox Live Arcade analysis. If you want to see how Trials HD and the Big Pack DLC compared against the rest, read it here:
http://www.gamerbytes.com/2010/01/indepth_xbox_live_arcade_sales_5.php
This is what they said about Trials HD:
"Trials HD has had over 640,000 players play its game, and it truly is a phenomenon that surpassed everyone's expectations. Shadow Complex comes just behind it, followed by Hasbro Family Game Night, with just over 400,000 unique users.
...
The Trials HD DLC on the other hand, much like the game itself, has far exceeded expectations. 91,382 people had played the first extra course from the Trials HD “Big Pack”, an astonishing number."
