As expected. Modern Warfare 2 is a colossal step up from the last two entry’s.

blackblades528d ago

Best selling but didnt win anything at the VGAs as expected.

badz149528d ago

it's a cookie-cutter experience that's nothing groundbreaking but is doing right with the fans, like most MCU movies before Endgame. it should have at least won the MP category though which surprisingly went to Splatoon 3. welp, I guess they kinda really want to give something to Nintendo after all. Bayo3 is not Nintendo's btw.

Bobertt528d ago

Backwards perk system, missing features at launch, broken audio system, still has SBMM, UI was bad at launch. The only big improvements are the maps but that's only compared to recent CoDs. Compared to older Cods like the original MW2 it pales in comparison.

Hardware:
1. PlayStation 5
2. Switch
3. Xbox Series

Everything is right in the world.

Thought Xbox and Switch out sold it on black Friday and the week after Thanksgiving?

TheCaptainKuchiki528d ago

Am I tripping or Vgchartz changed their week 47 numbers? they had Switch and Xbox above 1.2 million and now they lowered the Xbox and increased the Switch.

lodossrage528d ago

they adjust their numbers all the time. It's why everyone mocks vgchartz when people try to use them for sales numbers.

Unfortunately, at the same time, they're the only place we know of that shows collective sales on a daily basis.

TheCaptainKuchiki528d ago

Yeah I saw the owner's tweet.
That error margin is huge but they still get quite close to the reality considering they don't have NPD's deep pockets.

MrNinosan528d ago

They always put Xbox sales higher than the real numbers, and then when numbers are out, they adjust silently.

Zhipp528d ago

They adjust their numbers when more reliable data comes in. This is why they're reliable for long term data, but often not so much in the short term

darthv72528d ago

As others have said. They specifically say estimates and revise the numbers as real data comes in. Much more transparent than years prior.

VGChartz November 2022 US estimates BEFORE adjustments:
XS: 1.25M
PS5: 1.14M
NS: 1.05M

VGChartz November 2022 US estimates AFTER adjustments:
PS5: 1.14M
NS: 1.09M
XS: 1.08M

PS5 remains the same, NS adjusted up, and XS adjusted down.

Nothing beats Call of Duty sales but GTA. On a side note, I'm surprised Sonic Frontiers is number 4, glad it didn't flop.

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.

PunksOnN4G284d 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!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood284d 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

PunksOnN4G284d 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

ManMarmalade284d ago

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

fr0sty284d ago (Edited 284d 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.

StarkR3ality284d 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.

TheColbertinator283d ago

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

PunksOnN4G284d 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

andy85284d ago

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

Jin_Sakai284d ago (Edited 284d 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.

PunksOnN4G284d 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

peppeaccardo284d 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 !

jznrpg284d ago

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

anast284d ago

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