First xbox360 game that sells 1 million copies is... - Sep 13, 2006 06:57
" Activision, Inc. announced today that Infinity Ward’s critically acclaimed Call of Duty 2 for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system has sold more than one million units in the U.S. alone, according to NPD Funworld....."

So with europe perhaps 1.3 or 1.4 million units,cause i think they would have announced 1.5 mark if they was at it.

Good thing that they sell much units,they are good dev.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

I dunno. I had my chips on CoD:2. If just for the fact that CoD:2 has been out longer than Oblivion, and for the most part, shooters have a wider audience stateside than racing games.

We know that Oblivion has sold over 1 million ex.
That we heard like 1- 3 weeks after the launch.

And we know that slightly more bought it to 360.

So i would guess on around 600.000-800.000 ex by now.

For me games like RE4,God of war,Civ4 and Dq8 is more worth it...

I would expect Dead Rising to follow... Or maybe Gears of War when it comes out
Dead Rising has already sold 500,000 in US, and is now topping the UK charts.

Epic are " betting the farm" on Gears of War, and the hype for it is immense...

Show it to anyone, and they are impressed...

Even I pre-ordered gears (but I couldn' t find the special edition one). As for dead rising I hope it sells a million at least.

I' m hoping to get a copy on release day. Hopefully the LTD editions won' t be sold
out, I mean, us Brits aren' t really as excited as the chainsaw bits as our
respectable American cousins..

I' m still going to get this game day 1.. As the UK, surprised me with their taking
to Dead Rising, so I don' t want to NOT get a copy of Gears when it' s released...

I don' t believe in pre-ordering games most of the time..
