This isn't the biggest surprise ever.
It's modern warfare 2, direct sequel to arguably one of the biggest games of this generation and even though some people might have disliked World at War, knowing that this game would be set in the modern day probably brought a lot more people back in.
I know the hype has been less than stellar in vgchartz but we represent a small number of people only, and I'm guessing even those of us that protested against MW2 will pick it up anyway.
And to be honest, having played nearly all of the single player, I'd say infinity ward do deserve the sales it's getting, regardless of what you think of activision
