Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Crosses The Billion Dollar Mark In 10 Days

Impressive numbers for the new game. Activision’s Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® II continues to smash franchise records as the new blockbuster has crossed $1 billion in worldwide sell-through following the first 10 days from its release on October 28, 2022. The new mark tops the previous franchise record of 15 days set in 2012.

Rumors of COD's demise were greatly exaggerated! lol

Jin_Sakai557d ago

I still remember when they were fun to play. Now they’re just filled with sweats and TTV streamers.

Garethvk556d ago

Tech issues aside in the campaign, this has been very fun.

Jin_Sakai556d ago

The campaign is fine. I’m specifically referring to the MP.

CantThinkOfAUsername556d ago

Yup. I was a CoD pleb until Twitch became a thing and everyone started sweating their balls even in normal TDM/S&D.

crazyCoconuts556d ago

I think the MP is fun to play. I'm rarely the best on my team but it's still fun

EazyC556d ago

Man I'm playing it right now and it's great. Haven't enjoyed CoD like this since I was a young lad back on the original Modern Warfare games..

yeahokwhatever556d ago

this is the best COD in years.

It’s consistently been the biggest franchise ever. Only gamers online don’t like it but go outside and you’ll see it’s insanely popular.

Garethvk556d ago

Their least popular and disappointing entries would be a massive success for any publisher.

Garethvk556d ago (Edited 556d ago )

Exactly. Plus it is clear that any Modern Warfare and somewhat Black Ops entry usually does better than new entries like WW2, Vanguard, Ghosts, Advanced Warfare. Not so much a quality aspect which can be debated but players clearly like the Modern Warfare entries over new entries.

Crows90556d ago

Granted they decided to rerelease an old game with changes and improvements. Im hearing good things about this one which is very different from other releases of cod

Orchard556d ago

"Granted they decided to rerelease an old game with changes and improvements."

This isn't an old game? It's a brand new game.

Crows90556d ago

@orchard

Call of duty modern warfare 2 initially released in 2009 I believe. This is a remake with new content.

Orchard556d ago

@Crows For it to be a remake or remaster, it would have to retain the original story, or at least a majority of it.

Take TLOU Pt 1 for example, did they go change the story? No.

Crows90556d ago

@orchard

That's odd. My mistake. Didn't realize the game was a complete reimagining. Excited to play it knowing all the levels and story are different.

Orchard556d ago (Edited 556d ago )

@Crows Yep, every level and every part of the story is completely different.

I bought it off the Modern Warfare name alone. Yes…. I’m a moron

Orchard556d ago

Crazy amount of revenue. MW2 keeps breaking all kinds of entertainment records too.

I guess all the people who were saying COD is done and they weren't buying it... ended up buying it.

Outlawzz556d ago

Wow, I remember they used to say COD was declining, never would have thought they would be breaking records ten years later lol

swifty1556d ago

I think gamers prefer “modern” shooters, not ww1

Garethvk556d ago

WW2 was welcome after Infinite but not so much for Vanguard.

Crows90556d ago

I prefer WW1. I think it's all down to the generation. But above all I prefer a good main campaign with good gunplay.

MW3 shouldn’t leave Modern Warfare 2’s overlooked playlist behind

Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.

Modern Warfare 2 Adds Pay-to-Win Items With Thermal Scope and Merlin the Dog, Here's How They Work

Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.

PunksOnN4G280d ago

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood280d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G280d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade280d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

fr0sty280d ago (Edited 280d ago )

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality280d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator279d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G280d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy85280d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai280d ago (Edited 280d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G280d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo280d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg280d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast280d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
