#MODERN WARFARE 2 STEAM SALE HISTORY PC#
The PC version has done tremendous in its first week, better than our previous game.The most-anticipated game of the year and the sequel to the best-selling first-person action game of all time, Modern Warfare 2 continues the gripping and heart-racing action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse.Ĭall of Duty®: Modern Warfare 2 features for the first time in video games, the musical soundtrack of legendary Academy Award®, Golden Globe® Award, Grammy® Award and Tony winning composer Hans Zimmer. Developed by Infinity Ward, Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare takes the top-selling series in Call of Duty to new heights. “Essentially, all this percentage proves is that the console versions sold great, not that the PC version sold poorly, because that's actually not the case.
Making it the most successful PC version,” Bowling added. “The PC version of Modern Warfare 2 has actually outsold the PC version of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in its first week. When numbers got set on the same paper and lines were drawn, it seems like MW2 still outperformed the original Modern Warfare. Community Manager Robert Bowling posted on the official forums that, “Yes, PC is the smallest percentage in terms of how much sold on each platform but that hardly means anything other than the PC is just the smallest market.” So the company doesn't really need to properly support the game for the PC anyway. But when it was revealed that the PC sales of the game amounted only to three percent of the total, PC players everywhere felt a bit more united than when the boycott Steam community page was filled with its members hogging the MW2 on the launch day (via PC Gamer Forums).īut the official point of view on this is not that the game's sales were sabotaged by IW's decision to sap the PC version of the title, just that the console version sold all that much better and that the PC-fan community is an insignificant spec. The game brought in $550 millions in just five days, so, when the exact numbers for sales came in, the PC boycotters felt pretty smug about “opposing the system.” There's no doubt that the title sold amazingly, becoming the biggest entertainment launch in history, topping everything and everyone. When the company refused to rethink its approach to the game, all out war was declared by PC gamers that threatened to steer clear of the title completely. The game's PC community didn't take the news very well and an online petition was signed by over 220,000 players asking IW to reconsider its decision. Infinity Ward, the game's developer, announced that it planned to remove the dedicated servers from it, and later that it would impose an 18-player cap on the IWNnet servers. Prior to its official launch, the title faced some serious controversy regarding its PC version. Call of Duty®4:Modern Warfare®, is back, remastered in true high-definition, featuring enhanced textures, rendering, high-dynamic range lighting, and much more to bring a new generation experience to fans. 13 days have passed since Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 was launched, and the game keeps making the headlines. One of the most critically acclaimed games in history.
