Activision trumpets $1 billion for Modern Warfare 3
The information is derived from retailer sell-through data and the UK's Chart-Track service, and is positioned in comparison to entertainment nemesis Hollywood, where 2009's Avatar took longer to reach the same sales (19 in total if you ask Wikipedia). James Cameron's 3D spectacle rested on an awful lot of noses and eventually reached $2 billion worldwide.
Alas, that's an indication of Modern Warfare 3's diminishing returns in the news sphere. Next year, we want to see two billion bucks before we commit a sentence.

There is no doubt this game needs a lot of work. But there is always that one guy who says "I have'nt had any problems with this game what so ever." open your eyes.

Sick_LifewarinvaderI have a 50 Meg connection that costs 42 GBP a month don't tell me sh*t that i already have how about you play the game and see the connection yourselfSick_Life 1 Billion Dollars and still cant fix the **** they need to fix instead they are fixing worthless **** like over powered guns.... fix the connection first you idiots!
Consider getting a good connection first. I've seen nothing but awesome non-laggy games myself.
Had it since release, never had any problems.
Oh also, ping plays a much bigger role in your connection than your download speed. You need about 512-1024 kb/s actual download speed to play without problems. If your ping is high, because you get internet through a gateway, from a small company or for whichever other reason.. you can have a DS/1 line and you still won't be able to play decently.
OT: Well deserved, very good game.
