Blops also has 12 year olds but it doesn't make up as big a proportion as Halo. You can read the stats.
Plus, there's some serious competition with other big market games like Assassins Creed 3 which sold a hefty 3.5 million copies, twice what Revelations sold.
thats a great sign! 2+million users decided to say NO.
Finally! Some people realised how crappy this series, it didn't outsell MW3, can't wait for next year, GTA V will break it's records.
Black Ops II (X360) FW sales: 6.21m
Halo 4 (X360) FW sales: 3.80m
If you mean that in another way (like your prediction was correct), then your not alone in your prediction. There's no sane person who would've thought Halo 4 would sell higher than BO2. CoD's in a different league to any other game (sales-wise)... Halo 4 is still massively successful though - 4.55m in its first 2 weeks worldwide.
Have you played the story? It's one of the best of recent times (With a genuinely well thought out bad guy)
Yeah because that what people want when they buy cod a good story, fml
One of the best of CoD's stories sure but it is far too cliche and nonsensical. I don't see why the tank thing with legs exists. The design choices are so stupid and for a war game you would think they would know more about strategic designs. I wouldn't say it is one of the best of recent times. Dozens of indie games that recently came out are better written and more creative and they cost little and had far less funding.
So, uh, who's talking a load of horseshit, again?
It's not the number of bubbles you have, it's how you use them. haha :p
On topic. This is an insane number of sales, even for CoD. I didn't pick it up myself. I'm gonna just keep playing Black Ops 1 and Battlefield BC2 (PS3). I did pick up LBP Karting last night though for 25 bucks. Score!! haha
WoW look at those PC Numbers.....401K (I'm sure those numbers are a lot higher when you add in Digital Sales)
But still that's a lot of PC Gamers that are like "this is not better than Planetside 2...why did I buy this"? LMAO....J/k COD has a nice PC community of Gamers!
Lower numbers than MW3.....is Call of Duty losing it's MOJO? Lets see what the numbers look like after Christmas!
The rest have been engorging on PS2, XCOM, BL2 and the new DayZ mods.
lol "is Call of Duty losing it's MOJO?"
It still sold 11 million. It may be suffering from "wait til christmas" syndrome or maybe lack of interest, but 11million is still frightening numbers.
YES i was just Joking!
11 million is still "Money in the Bank"!
....Kinda like how people now say "WoW is down to 10 million Gamers from 12m! YEH but it's still 10 million....."Money in the Bank"!
LOL @ ApolloTheBoss you think Halo 4 sold better than Black Ops 2?
You fellow PS3 owners never cease to amaze me with the support you give developers/publishers who give you broken games.
Buy PS3 exclusives!
You never seize to amaze me with your asinine comments you ignoramus!!! FYI, Resistance: Fall of Man sold 4.09 million copies
Your point seems to be you're over-sensitive about (incorrectly) perceived slights against Xbox.
Killzone 2: 2.87
Killzone 3: 2.36
Resistance 1: 4.09
Resistance 2: 2.34
Resistance 3: 1.22
Yeah, 4.55 million is DEFINITELY more than 14.14 million.
And us PS3 owners should REALLY buy more exclusives. I mean, dozens of million unit-moving games isn't enough to prove we buy a lot and in variety.
Go play planetside 2!
4.61M ps3 owners are playing a buggy hand me down port. smh
And this folks is why you complain about innovation. Why the hell would activition care?
http://n4g.com/news/943500/...
Shouldn't really be a surprise though. You can't really expect CoD to keep breaking week one records forever. It's going to peak at some point. Doesn't mean that people are losing interest in it though.
Ohh you guys (N4G)

BO: Declassified sales are pretty dismal. It's probably a good thing that it's sold so poorly though; judging from the reviews, everyone who buys it will be disappointed :P
If Activision hadn't thrown Declassified together faster than Crackdown 2 was, it would have been huge for the Vita.
I wait MW4 next-gen!
Want even less for the next COD
Your move, start with the pc gaming industry.
http://coopcgames.info/cool...
Unlike console gamers, PC gamers obviously don't buy a lot of crap, lol
BLOPS2: £42.99
MW3: £44.99
Wait, what?
CoD is probably the biggest selling game this generation. Each game has hit numbers some developers could only dream of reaching. So why are they so expensive? How about showing some appreciation to your user base and lower the price some?
But they could sell MW4 for a solid £50 and then ask for another £40 in DLC and people would still pay it. I guess people really do hate change.
I picked up BLOPS2 for £15 (Nuketown included) :)
In the same place I saw:
Mass Effect 3 - £20
Sleeping Dogs - £20
Max Payne 3 - £20
And you could get these cheaper online.
All came out this year. So why does CoD get a free pass on this and MW3 is £45?
God I hope Hobbit sales are worse than LOTR because I have no reason to hate!
That's all I see.
They wont be doing that if the same people keep buying the same game over and over again.
When was the last time you even played CoD?

Second fail= thinking black ops 2 is a good game
Third fail= Equating that because of sales numbers its a good game
I thinks its the fact that parents and friends go to a game store and see BLOPSII and MW3 with the same price tag and cant tell which one is the most recent one lmao
I was a big fan of SOCOM, Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six, etc. How we went from those games to this still makes me wonder.
There are studios going out of business trying to make games with passion, and this thing gets whipped up in a year and sells 10m+.
Even though I dont own it, I have seen plenty watching my nephew play.
