We already knew about Modern Warfare 2 and its successful first day, but now the game has even more stats to show off. Edge reports that Activision claims the game has generated $550 million so far worldwide. In terms of units, analyst Colin Sebastian estimates 8.5-9 million copies were sold in the first week. "We also believe that the title is on track to meet or exceed our 4Q unit shipment estimate of 12.5M units," he said.
Unsurprisingly, the game is also beating out Xbox Live records. Kotaku reports that 2.2 million people played more than 5.2 million multiplayer hours on the first day. That averages to about 2 hours per player, but we're sure a handful of them played nearly all day. And, that initial burst of first-day play unlocked more than 11 million achievements.
