Call of Duty is over 300 million units. It has done this in only around 15 years, and without the game spam of the two games above it, Pokemon and Mario. Usually just One game a year, that's 15 games in 15 years, plus 1 remake, and a few spinoffs. That's not very many games, and yet it has managed to be in the top 3 without the quantity aspect that many developers (hi Capcom and Megaman and Hudson/Konami and Bomberman), especially Japanese developers, thought would be the key to larger sales.
Many people have mixed feelings on the series and for good reason. However, whether the way they changed the industry was good or bad is irrelevant, it did what no other game franchise has done, especially with their main games, and that's sell an average of around 17 or so million units per game since it started till present. That's impressive for a game printed on a Blu Ray disc that kills millions of people.
Seriously though, something attracts people to Call of Duty so much that no other game has ever had a similar attraction. Fifa is one of the biggest selling franchise world wide, running since the early 90's, COD started in 2003 and didn't become decent until COD3, and huge until COD4. Yet, It passed Fifa 4-5 years ago.
So in conclusion, I demand we bring in a jury of our peers and put Call of Duty developers and Activision CEO Bobby Kotick, along with the CFO, the CTO and any other big admin position occupant, and try them all for treason and brainwashing schemes, because clearly, there is some kind of mind controlling technology inside of those discs.
Another advantage of HD DVD like Freedom Gate said! A company wouldn't be able to put a brainwashing chip in an HD DVD, only Blu Ray allows this horrible thing. It's the only explanation that makes sense other than Activision sending undercover hitman to threaten to kill your entire family unless you buy 10 copies of each COD game per house and that's a bit far fetched so it's clearly the BLU RAY that's at fault.
Grrr....
Kotick relayed that Call of Duty is "one of the most successful entertainment franchises of all time," remarking that the franchise has achieved a considerable "cumulative sales exceeding 300 million games" in its lifetime. Even among a stony group of ultra-wealthy business people who frequently push the company to take cold measures (to say Kotick was in good company would be an understatement), it's hard to imagine that this energizing statement didn't rouse at least some of them.
If any more proof was needed that Call of Duty is still a mega success in the world of gaming, joining the likes of Pokémon and Mario should be the last word on the matter. And like Nintendo's flagship franchises, Call of Duty shows no sign of slowing down in its ambition to push even more units and reach even more players, with the next unnamed game in the series already existing in a playable state. It's rumored to be the next sequel in the long dormant Modern Warfare trilogy, but, even so, it's not slowing down support for the battle royale-centric Call of Duty: Black Ops 4
