Top selling game of the year maybe but never best selling game of all time.

COD4 was excellent and I'm pretty sure COD6 (aka Modern Warfare 2), will sell very well based on its hype and the developer's previous achievements.

However... "biggest selling video game of all time" doesn't sound right.

I certainly won't buy any Infinity Ward game because i dont want to give my money to people who make the same game all over again and then boast, that it will be the best selling of all time. I hope they choke on their words.

This does sound highly possible, Based on the first Modern Warfare. The key is to continually improve the quality and, in short, not screw up the franchise.

It's called Call of Duty 6ish: Moderner Warfare.

In order to be the "best-selling game of all time" it will have to beat out stuff like The Sims and Myst over the long haul, which won't happen since a lot of those sales will stop entirely as soon as Call of Duty 8-or-so: Modernest Warfare of All comes out.

Also, it won't be the bestseller across other entertainment media in terms of sales numbers... in dollars it might come close, but number of sales?

More ideas for the title:
Modern Warfare 2: Duty Calls
Call of Duty 2009
Modern Warfare 2: A Call of Duty Game
Call of Duty 6: Blood on the Sand
Call of Cthulu: Modern Warfare
Call of Duty 6: Call Harder
Modern Warfare 2: Another War
Modern Warfare Remodeled
Modern Warfare 2: Continuation

It's gonna sell well that's almost certain.

But best selling of all time? Almost impossible if you ask me.

Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare ressurected

;)

Anyways, I, myself won't buy the game. Didn't enjoy the last one, probably won't enjoy this one as I don't see them do any improvements. I guess they'll just put more action into the game and call it a day.

There are a lot of casual gamers out there that do not realise that MW2 is the sequel to CoD:MW, as they don't deal in franchises or companies.

There will probably be a lot of people (read- idiots) leaving it because (they think it's) *ooh* something new and different

Its hype, it won't come close to being beating any records.

Its focus and appeal are far too narrow. Shiny graphics and interesting single player won't change the fact that its an FPS, which has a much smaller target audience than things like GTA do.

Well they're certainly aiming their goals quite high aren't they? Nothing like unbridaled optimism to shatter because I highly doubt it will ever happen.

Oh, Activision. When will you ever learn? This game isn't going to sell that well. It probably won't beat any Nintendo franchise game in sales, let alone CoD4. I'm still going to pick up a copy, but these publishers really need to learn when to keep their mouth shut.

no, its a marketing statement, like when they said cod4 would have the best graphics and be the best shooter of 07 (both dead wrong), or the same things about cod5.
If you don't think CoD4 was the best Shooter of 2007, I honestly have to question your judgement. Sure, Halo and Bioshock were good games, but neither can really hold a candle to COD4's multiplayer, which I'm guessing many many people (including myself) still play on a daily basis. How many times did you play through Bioshock before it got boring and tedious, twice maybe?
