Modern Warfare 2 has become the fastest-selling game ever in the UK.
The title sold 1.23 million copies in its first 24 hours on release, smashing the previous day one record of 631,000 units set by Grand Theft Auto IV, according to MCV.
Activision has also shipped an unprecedented three million copies to retailers, which it hopes will satisfy both launch demand and sales leading up to Christmas.
Midnight openings of game stores across the country were arranged in order to cater for the high demand.
Modern Warfare 2 was released on 360 and PS3 earlier this week. The Steam PC version will be available tomorrow.
I'd bet the majority of that was in the morning too.

i got my first big kill streak last night 17or 18 i cant remember to 0 stupidly id taken the ac130 off as a killstreak perk just before that game grr by the end of the game though i was 26 for 12 lol i was on fire then the next moment i was getting pissed on by everyone
I dont really understand the killstreaks.
the other day on that big level with the trenches (overgrown or something??) I did a 19-0 ,so in theory a 19 killstreak, but it hasnt shown up on my leaderboard yet??
I'm not sure if helicopter ect... count towards your skill streak mate.
Could be wrong tho.
Actually using this a lot mate. Really good even if it's just a quick uav to find people, well worth it for just 2 kills.I'm loving the care package, and using 'hardline pro' to get it early
Yeah it adds onto your score as kills but not your killstreak, it's always been like that.
