I am a little slow - what exactly I am looking at here¿? Many of them seem to be playing modern warfare 2

It's a Steam Group for an MW2 boycott, you're seeing the members of that group and what they're playing.

I always found this to be a bad example. 15 people out of the 51 on that page are playing the game they're in a boycott group for. That's a clear minority, even if that had been representative of all 1557 members.
