Modern Warfare 2 $15 DLC just outsold Killzone 2 lifetime sales in a week

"MW2 sells 1mil in 1day"

Keep in mind, it's only on the 360 right now.

As much as I dislike MW2, it certainly has a devoted audience.

Edit; apparently, it's sold more than 2.5 mil now.

That's better than the clear majority of console exclusives -- it's quickly catching up to the lifetime numbers of Uncharted 2 and Littlebigplanet, and beat the lifetime sales of Killzone 2 in a week.

Wow.

In before the "lol MW2!" and "Who buys this crap?"

Edit: To be on topic though... yeah... that's a lot of money for Activision.

Not surprised, and while I do think it's a bit annoying to see something so highly priced sell so fast, I can't complain either. 15 bucks for maps that will be endlessly replayed till the next MW game, or also just because well... people have spoken with their wallets, and 15 bucks for new maps is the new standard!! :D ...:(

Wow. Considering it's price, it sold pretty well

Can't say I'm surprised, 15 bucks isn't much to a lot of people that have been putting countless hours into MW2.

The online is fun but people enjoy it so much they'd actually dish out $15 for a few more stages? Wow.

It's not surprising that it sold so well on 360. It'll be a flop on PC for sure.

Poor soul, you are insulted by supply and demand... You don't need to like everything you know, the whole world doesn't revolve around you.

Might as well go ahead spend $20 on a game like Dead Space if you're going to spend $15 on 5 maps. Seriously, I hate casuals and they are going to make the industry worse and worse.

Now let's make a quick list of what they could have spent the money on instead:

• Castle Crashers
• Perfect Dark XBLA
• Shadow Complex
• Ikaruga
• I MADE A GAME WITH ZOMBIES IN IT!!!!
• Bomberman Live
• 'Splosion Man
• Megaman 10
• Portal: Still Alive

And these sales come only from Xbox Live so far.

No dont buy overpriced dl content people, or else they will just keep over chargeing.

but they like MW more, why buy something else when you can get more of what you like?

I'm not trying to insinuate that they should not buy the map pack, but rather they could have possibly gotten their money's worth instead (I don't want to debate value).

For the people that bought this and played CoD4, they are paying $15 for 3 new maps and 2 old maps. If the map pack was either $10 or had 5 completely new maps, then the map pack would be okay. I just believe if someone is going to pay $15 for a map pack not worth it's complete value, then that person should jump for a game instead.

Hmm makes complete sense to compare a $15 dollar expansion to Killzone 2 sales.FIipMode

Well.. That's pretty horrible. I don't want to see even more expensive DLC in the future. :(

That's very suprising. I never expected the mark to even go over 1 Mil.

I hate the fact it sold well cause now they know they can get people for 15 bucks with so littl content. I wouldint be shocked if the next map pack would be 20 bucks. People will cry about it for a little bit,but then give in and buy it.

-1 hope in humanity.
