We have writen before about Modern Warfare 2. It looks like this popular Call of Duty first person shooter will be popular at the box office as well when they make a Call of Duty Movie. Why do I say that you ask? Why because Modern Warfare 2 sold almost 5 million units in the first 24 hours.

The actual number was 4.7 million across North America and the United Kingdom. Activisioin Chief Executive Officer Mike Griffith said “Modern Warfare 2 has taken interactive experience to unprecedented heights setting a new standard for entertainment.” Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 sold over $310 million in the first day on November 12, 2009. This makes it the biggest launch in history. Over ten thousand retail outlets carried the game in the United States.
