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


Bye bye Infinity Ward, PC gamers don't want you anymore.

Just as well console gamers are picking up the slack + more.



 

Around the Network

Uncharted 2 has risen by 4 Places in Ireland



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

wow forza 3 holding out very well, Pure & lego batman at top 15, so arcade look sells good too.



NSMB not so impressive debut. Couldnt beat Assasins creed on 360



Why is no one commenting on the relatively poor showing of NSMBWii. It'll be a long seller but still! 4th on launch week??? No mention in the press release?

And all games come out on Friday's so no using the xcuse "it was only out 2 days!".

I am disappointed.



Elaine: I will never understand people

Jerry: They're the worst.

NSMB could well go up next week. Second weeks are often bigger than first weeks in Europe, and the first week was just 2 days of sales.

Good sign for Left 4 Dead 2, the original did like 55kk FW in Others, hopefully it can top that

I'm not sure what your point is, it's not because of consoles that the PC version of Mw2 is failing.

Uncharted showing the legs it doesn't have, as predicted by me.

Not sure you could really have expected anything better from it in a week with the launch of AC2 and LfD2 and with MW2 releasing only last week (not to mention the usual Wii games that never stray too far from the top of the chart).

Not great for LBP but it's on PSP so that was sadly to be expected. It should mantain steady sales for a while I would think.

For Wii games, the 2 days "excuse" is actually quite valid, since sales are steadier following the launch. So you'd expect the second week to be pretty good considering it has 3.5 more days than the first week.

I haven't followed UK charts recently, but at least in 2008 it was quite common for Wii games to have better second weeks than first weeks.
