Huh?! WoW makes all of it's revenue on PC, so it counts for PC. Activision separating WoW revenue from the rest of PC means nothing. EA, for example, doesn't include digital sales of PC games or other non-traditional revenues on the PC revenue when they release their Quaterly reports.

Are they (kotaku) sure that MMORPG doesn't include the boxed versions? WotLK sold 2.8 million copies just in the first day. So there is still an extra month and a half of that, a year of CoD4, WoW, BC, all of Blizzards old games, couple months of World at War, and whatever other PC games Activision has. Maybe online sales don't count as part of the 99 million, but it still seems too low. Even if they only made $25 off each copy of WotLK and didn't sell a single collector's edition, then they made 71% of their revenue in 24 hours.

Yep, it is amazing

Xbox still not dead yet confirmed. Still competing with ps2 (and wii :P)

It's amazing World of Warcraft is pulling over a billion/year in revenue.

I used to play mmo's and it's quite curious... before wow became such a behemoth there were many mmo's being developed. Nowadays everyone is afraid of going against the billion pound gorila.

PS2 > PS3?!?! Tell me how that happened again?

Alot of it has to do with Activision's biggest series, Guitar Hero.

PS2 > PS3??? ^^ Yeah, probably. Well, they are both sony systems that total 525m combined.

I'm not saying it's not crazy profitable :)

I'm just putting in perspective the kind of investment a competitor would need to produce a comparable product...

Because at this point, lets face it, Wow is very polished...

are there even any good activision games on ps3? i aint surprised really. we want good games.
