After the smashing sucess of Modern Warfare II in UK wherein it's played like its the only game in town. Honestly, M2 II sales go insanely-high, it even beat the record of Grand Theft Auto IV. This '8 million report' is still generous compare to what it did to UK.

Actually from what I've seen online, and what I've seen on this site, it doesn't look like gamers in general will win anything as well.

...and thus begins the World War III genre.

I hope all 8 million of you know what you've done!

"/sarcasm" means "end sarcasm", so wouldn't "/end" mean "end end"? Are you done or not?

Nope, but we will see a shit-load of "modern" day war games. Until IW does a futuristic one (like Battlefield 2142) and then there will be even more over-saturation.

The cycle will never end.

Xbox Live/PSN figures. That also means that more people will have played it if they don't have these services.

No Darth is true, it's about 11 million if memory serves correctly...

But since we are talking about games THIS year then MW2 obviously takes the cake.

how many cooked ps3's does that equal. hmm, best selling game of all time, new ps3 slim released about 2 months ago. sony exec to stockholders " i think microsoft had a good idea w/ the 360 and that red ring of death fiasco. lets get on the horn w/ infinity ward and see if we can make a deal. when they update, ps3's from the launch era won't be able to handle it for very long and they will have to fix it or buy a new ps3 slim! we'll finally get our money back from those launch buying bastards. ok, who here says I?" bastard. luckily, i fixed mine and 3 others from my friends. i luv conspiracy theories
