Richard Bacon talking about it on air now

They've just said GTA IV took in half a billion quid in its first week of sales, yet pre-orders on MW2 have already doubled that. That is some serious cash.

£0.5bn in revenue, not in profit. And no considering the hype machine and advertising along with the massive fan base and word of mouth, it's hardly suprising. MW2 will easily become the best selling game of all time. Until that is the inevitable next GTA/IW CoD comes along.

They were talking to an off duty copper who said he's been into gaming since the 80's hence why 'pong' got mentioned. The show is on till 1am and they will be carrying on talking about MW2 throughout the show.

i like the fact they're attacking the gamer/geek stereotype

[WelshSossy]

I know, it's a total role reversal. It's the non gamer being made out to be the geek.

I was pmsl when he called MW2 "Call Centre Massacre 7". lmao
