Modern Warfare 2: Fastest Selling Game

There’s a lot of hype around Modern Warfare 2 last few days and apparently there’s no end. Many players are disappointed with single player experience, and rightfully so since it lasts for about 5 hours. The game received great reviews on various websites, while the users are consistently giving it a 1/10 score, but that didn’t slow down the sales one bit.

According to early reports, just in the first 24 hours after release over 7 million copies were sold worldwide. Only about 12% of all sales were for PC: PS3 sold 33% and Xbox 360 55% of sales. There were more than 4.5 million copies pre-ordered.

If predictions are at least a bit accurate, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will sell over 10 million copies in the first week and take the title as the fastest selling video game from last year’s Grand Theft Auto 4.

Feels like only yesterday Modern Warfare 2 hit the shelves… oh wait, it was yesterday.

Activision president Mike Griffith announced several new titles due in next year, and Call of Duty is one of them. It’s unknown yet whether it will be a sequel to World at War or Modern Warfare 3, but no doubt we’ll find out more about it soon.

I just hope Call of Duty won’t become one of those franchises which gets yearly sequels but without any new features.
