If anyone has been thinking that we've deliberately avoided the Modern Warfare launch in favor of Battlefield 3 stuff, well, I wouldn't blame them, but it really wasn't on purpose. Let us demonstrate our impartiality by passing on this rather astonishing statistic: Modern Warfare 3 made more than a quarter of a billion dollars in its first five days. That's definitely a record.Comparisons to big movie launches are warranted, of course, and MW3 has the biggest beat by a factor of three or four. Note that MW3's sales number include pre-orders, however, while most box office receipts are sold on the spot.
