(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Modern Warfare 2 destroys all records to become the fastest-selling game of all time worldwide. It has sold over 7 million copies in one day.

VGChartz preliminary day one figures puts the sales to date (including the midnight launches) at over 7 million copies worldwide across Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Around 55% of sales are on Xbox 360, 33% on PS3 and the remaining 12% on PC. In terms of regional breakdowns, over 4.2 million units were sold in the Americas (3.7 million USA), 1.2 million in the UK and 350,000 each in France and Germany.

Based on the day one figures and the Tuesday release, week one figures should come in at close to ten million units which smashes the 5.92 million week one record set by Grand Theft Auto 4 last year and positions Modern Warfare 2 as the most successful game launch of all time.

This doesn't surprise me at all. I think MW2 will be the game of the year and also the best game out until MW3 or whatever comes next in the COD series (excluding any Gayarch titles)

shock to me that that much were sold in a couple days, damn i thought it would be about 5mill not 7mill

not a shock but still exciting

Also broke all entertainment records beating the blockbusting movie The Dark Knight which only grossed $155 Million in it's entire theater life time where as CO MW 2 sold twice that in 24 hours of release by selling over $310 Million.
