The little indy that could...

Some poo poo EVE Online's peak concurrent user (PCU) numbers. It's true that EVE doesn't hold a candle to World of Warcraft's 6.5 million, but EVE beats every other game in this aspect: when EVE sets a PCU record, it's because EVE has more players in a single individual game world than any other game ever. Cool, huh?

When EVE Online opened the China beta, code named Serenity, they did it again:

CCP Games, the game's Icelandic developer, today announced that more than 30,000 users were concurrently playing in a single gameworld, which it claims is a new world record. In the first day, more than 200,000 people registered for the game. The Chinese version of the game is run by Optic Communications and runs independently of the Western edition of EVE Online.
