Modern Warfare 3 sells 6.5M in biggest day-one ever
Attachment 3968
We all need some extra cash in the holiday season, and if you're looking for someone to hit up for a loan, we'd recommend your rich Uncle Activision.
Quote:
The company just announced
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 sold 6.5 million units in the US and UK on its first day, good for
$400 million. To put it in perspective, that's the biggest day-one for any entertainment product ever in history. This tops previous records set by
Modern Warfare 2: a paltry $310 million and
Black Ops, estimated to have made $360 million in its first day.
Of course, analysts had
pre-orders pegged at roughly 9 million, so you know what that means to
Battlefield 3 fans. Yes,
Modern Warfare 3 is a huge disappointment falling well short of expectations. See, internet? Everybody wins!
