@turkish the difference is that sony always tries to whitewash their numbers to let a lot people think they sell the same amount of games like others do with their games even if they don't. most here know the difference between mw3 and uncharted3 numbers on vgc but i think most people on this planet don't know the difference between sony's and other companies numbers.

activision saying 6.5 million means 6.5 million bought the game and play it sony means 3.8 are in the shops people could buy.


"sony tries to whitewash their numbers" lol amusing. why is Sony so different then others when it comes to publishing numbers? When Sony says something, people get too emotional and in denial mode.

no i'm not emotional it's just a fact. i would be happy if uncharted would sell better than mw because i think it's the better game.

maybe you get to emotional here ;)

well it would make zero sense for a game like U3 to have similar sales figures to Halo 3.

There you go, that answers the question.



Holy mother of god..



lol I love how the media over hype the competition.

BF3 has been clearly been overwhelmed by the MW3 release.
Elder Scrolls appeals to a different loyal fanbase of gamers.

Frankly for casual gamers for the Xbox and PS3, its clear sailing to X-mas now.



yeah that is not a big deal anyways.

So over 2.4 million copies in the Rest of the world in one day.

Lol COD is easily as popular as any franchise overseas.

Let's not turn this into an sold/ship thread. Activision gets their numbers from NPD/chart track. Those are actual sales numbers.

Yeah, we all need to remember..


COD is sales...

lol




How did you get that number if 6.5 million is 400 million.



good well deserved

dont know why theres hate for the series theres really something for everyone great action pack SP campaign, same with MP theres some unbalance and cheaters but its to be accepted with the amount of players on, and specop/survival mode again great for solo, online mult,i and local multi

wonder if next years will outdo this i think it depends on what the HW landscape looks like if theres little signs of new HW from sony and MS then i think so, and if there will be any increase in nrintendo buyers if there is a superior wii u version

Frankly I am quite certain if you had millions on many MP games it suffer the same problems.
