Activision trumpets $1 billion for Modern Warfare 3
The information is derived from retailer sell-through data and the UK's Chart-Track service, and is positioned in comparison to entertainment nemesis Hollywood, where 2009's Avatar took longer to reach the same sales (19 in total if you ask Wikipedia). James Cameron's 3D spectacle rested on an awful lot of noses and eventually reached $2 billion worldwide.
Alas, that's an indication of Modern Warfare 3's diminishing returns in the news sphere. Next year, we want to see two billion bucks before we commit a sentence.

i haven't had a problem yet, BUT before you go ranting never in any of the post that someone said call of duty had a problem
NOT A SINGLE ONE stated what the problems are yet you are complaining about them?
makes no sense to me

coDyDaTallGuyWow i say the game needs work and then i'm fanboy, Ive played all call of duty games and i was disappointed with black ops, and i was hoping mw3 could live up to cod4 or mw2. With the right tweaks maybe but so far i'm not enjoying the game. I've been playing alot more of bf3 which is not a bad game, and getting back into some World at war.ActI agree, this game needs a lot of work and that doesn't mean were fanboys... Who ever says that we are are just conceded and are so used to sucking call of duty's **** for the past 4 and a half years when the majority of the them started playing it. Im not saying that the game is bad, im just saying that there are a few things they need to fix, and a few things they don't need to fix as well...stephenson5484TTG_V3ry_P1ss3d There is no doubt this game needs a lot of work. But there is always that one guy who says "I have'nt had any problems with this game what so ever." open your eyes.
i accually havent had a problem with the game so far ur just a bf3 fanboy just like the rest of them... you guys say that the game made 1billion just because the cover says call of duty... what a joke
You're just a moron that can't take opinion without creating a stupid reason such as "HURHUR UR A FANBOY".
A lot of people think this game needs work including myself, not everyone thinks the same.

This game was good for the first few weeks until everyone started to figure out the spawns and camping. Then the game just, flat-out, sucked.

Its funny how you make an accusation with no evidence. I guess it's just something the uneducated do.
