Call Of Duty Makes $500 Million In First Day Sales

Activision announced today that the total first day sales have proven that Black Ops II and the Call of Duty series remain the biggest selling name of the year, with over half a billion dollars in sales just within the first 24 hours.

“With first day sales of over half a billion dollars worldwide, we believe Call of Duty is the biggest entertainment launch of the year for the fourth year in a row,” said Bobby Kotick, Activision Blizzard’s CEO. “Life-to-date sales for the Call of Duty franchise have exceeded worldwide theatrical box office receipts for “Harry Potter” and “Star Wars,” the two most successful movie franchises of all time. Given the challenged macro-economic environment, we remain cautious about the balance of 2012 and 2013.”

For 300,000 signatures Crytek will release TimeSplitters HD collection

Ah, good old Timesplitters. If you remember the game you probably have some good memories. If you don’t remember it you are really missing out and I feel a little bad for you. Of course you could always go pick up a used copy somewhere to refresh your memory.

Well anyway, as you may know, Free Radical fell apart in 2009. Crytek swooped in and bought them out and basically left Timesplitters to die. They feel like there isn’t enough of a demand in a game like that in today’s market. The CEO however stated that he would be happy to push forward with a HD remake if this petition got 300,000 signatures. Sales on that would of course show them whether or not they should move forward with Timesplitters 4.
