I don't believe in these numbers at all, especially not in Black Ops selling 1.6 million through Digital Download at $50 or $60 a peace on the PC. I wouldn't believe in it even if it was 800K.

Black Ops sales being 10 % of total Steam revenue. Give me a break.

That just doesn't make sense. I remember reports of how badly MW (or was it MW2) sold on PC (just a few hundred thousand, dd plus retail combined), and Call of Duty is nearly as hated and despised among PC gamers now as it was back then.

that never happened, because all call of duty entries should be atleast million sellers on PC, if not multi-million sellers (as much as it pains to me say it).

Obviously MW1 eventually sold more than a million easily on PC, but I was refering to the first report from Activion only a few months after release (similar to this point after Black Op's release). In that view 1.6 million for Black Ops doesn't make sense.

PC gamers don't go to steam to buy Call of Duty, they buy all these other hundreds of games.
