The Call Of Duty franchise continually breaks its own record in what’s already become something of a spectator sport. Having grossed more than the revolutionary Avatar did at the box offices with Modern Warfare 3, it’s unsurprising that the backing team lead by Activision is looking to explore as many avenues as feasibly possible.
It came as no surprise back in November 2011 when Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was released, the game became the fastest grossing entertainment launch of all time - and this happened within only 24 hours. During the first full day of release, Modern Warfare 3 flew off the shelves 6.5 million times and amassed over $400 million for the owners of the franchise. Considering Modern Warfare 2 and Call Of Duty Black Ops had similar public reaction, the numbers, although significant, were somewhat expected.
