Yes, but i'm weird like that!  

Yes and the 19 people out of those 850 are just about 2%.... thanks for pointing it out.

Oh wow, did not notice that that page were the only ones on the entire list. Talk about sensationalist media.

I was strictly talking about the PC version. And either way the sales were hurt. How else would you explain the vertiginous drop in sales of the PC version?

Actually i we measure it according to OTHER PC games MW2 also fails miserably. It's not even the first o any sales charts on any DD already and it has been 2 weeks since release. That's actually a nice indication people are staying away from MW2.

Also thank you fo the statistics. Although I have to agree with vlad that many many of the countries listed have a far inferior software distibution than say, the US and other countries. It's interesting because if I pull up the internet speeds and penetration a bunch of the contries with reall good internet are way up above the US as well.

Another problem, the countries at the bottom generally make ridiculous amounts of money, and 50 bucks for them is reasonable, however 50 bucks for the poorer countries at the top is just outrageous. If anything developers need to pull their heads out of their asses and realize they can't sell games at the same price point throughout the world.

In another thread I provided what Valve had to say about piracy (basically layign the blame ond developers) and they even noted that when they cut game prices by 75% they made 15% more money than when they were selling at 100%. So obviously there is a huge problem with pricing. Ultimately it's because developers/publishers are at fault, not the people. Also DRM is the worst idea a deveoper has ever had to stem piracy.

lol PC defense force incoming.

Spin it as much as you want, but the majority is smart enough to not believe you anyway.

lol Activision defence force incoming.

See what I did there? ;)

And moreover, people are to not believe what?  The screen shot shows that the vast majority did keep with the boycot, despite how it gets thrown around to show just the opposite.

And moreover, there are tons of testimonials out there from people who were on the fence over the whole thing, decided they'd give it a shot, and were completely disappointed.

Using your reasonning the console version sold terrible too seeing how sales dropped 80% week 2....

It's called being frontloaded and MW2 is evidently more frontloaded than Cod4 as the first numbers we have demonstrate...

The depth to which you guys will go to try to convince yourself your boycott had any effect is quite pathetic...

So the MW2 is more frontloaded, but has much lower sales in the rest of it's lifetime... that tells me that MW2 is doing much worse than COD4, because over 90% of sales are AFTER the first week of release.

I also am a bit puzzled by your excuse because MW2 seems to have barely outsold COD4 in the first week, yet MW2 dropped 15 places in week while COD4 only dropped 5 places:

Modern Warfare 2 PC dropped like a stone! The boycott and negative press is definitely hurting MW2.

For Comparison:

Call of duty 4
1st Week: 8th
2nd Week: 13th

Modern Warfare 2
1st Week: 5th
2nd Week: 20th

The most important part is that, even though Modern Warfare is exclusive to Steam in the Digital Distribution market, it already lost 1st place on Steam to L4D2. As I recall, it took months for COD4 to lose 1st place, and even then COD4 was being sold in other DD services AND was also dominating Direct2Drive.

Again, I'm talking about the PC version. But overall, even with the console versions success, the truth is MW2 is suffering from bad decisions made by Infinity Ward. They are losing sales on the PC version, regardless of the console versions sales.
