Apparently the coming of Easter did little to influence the Xfire community's gaming habits are concerned. Sunday saw the number of hours spent playing the twelve most popular MMORPGs declined by only 1.1%. Games seeing an increase in playtime were lead by Planetside 2 (+30.8%) and Guild Wars 2 (+9.0%) while APB: Reloaded (-17.1%), Tera (-15.4%), and Lord of the Rings Online (-13.9%) led the declining games.
Double Your Fun - Planetside 2 saw a resurgence based on a double Station Cash/double XP weekend. SOE traditionally hands out double the rates of experience on holiday weekends and along with the deal for Station Cash proved once again the promotion still draws people to SOE's games.
Another Successful Patch - ArenaNet showed once again that players like new content when it released Flame and Frost: The Razing last Tuesday for Guild Wars 2. So far ArenaNet was introduced some sort of new content, whether holidays or the Living Story, every month since October.
