Despite all the complaints, controversies and nerd rage surrounding PC version ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Infinity Ward has officially declared that it sold more than the original game, indicating that the lack of dedicated servers was not a huge deal to most consumers.
“The PC version ofModern Warfare 2has actually outsold the PC version ofCall of Duty 4: Modern Warfarein its first week,” confirms Infinity Ward’s Robert Bowling, “making it the most successful PC version.”
It seems that Infinity Ward could have done no wrong withModern Warfare 2. It managed to alienate a huge section of the PC gamer community, earn nothing but negative press about the PC release, and yet still eclipse the sales ofCall of Duty 4. In any case, it would appear that dedicated servers are not quite as important to most PC gamers as some of them make out.
Of course, it doesn’t help that most of the supposed boycotters areplaying the game right now.
