Bungie, the designer of the popular Halo videogame series, reported that Halo 3 reached one billion matches online on Saturday night. Since the game's release, players around the world have clocked more than 64,000 years of playtime online, discounting offline play. This number represents a huge increase over the game's predecessor, Halo 2, which has logged about 800 million games.
Bungie points out in their news story that 64 millenia ago, there were no humans in Asia and Neanderthals still lived.
The billionth game, at 6:36 PM PST, was a 3:19 game of Infection on the Foundry map.
