Activision and Infinity Ward's
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 topped unit sales rankings in the UK for the third week in a row, despite slowing sales of the title,
Chart-Track said Monday.
Unit sales of the game dropped 32 percent during the week ended November 28, but it was still enough for
Modern Warfare 2 to hang onto the top spot on the all-platforms chart, the tracking firm said. In
Modern Warfare 2's opening day in the UK, the title reportedly sold 1.23 million units in the region. First-week revenues hit £67.4 million ($111.8 million) in the UK.
Modern Warfare 2, released November 10, generated $550 million in its first week worldwide,
pushing Call of Duty franchise sales over $3 billion, Activision recently said.
The top three games for the most recent week carried over from the prior week. Following
Modern Warfare 2 once again are the recently released games
Assassin's Creed 2 from Ubisoft and
New Super Mario Bros. Wii from Nintendo.
The only game to drop out of the top 10 from last week was Warner Bros. Interactive's
Lego Batman: The Videogame, developed by Traveller's Tales.
F1 2009 from Sumo Digital and Codemasters rose from the number 11 spot last week to number 10 to bump
Lego Batman.
