Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Sells Millions
EA today announced that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has sold over 2.3 million copies since its launch in early march. That's a lotta good company.
DICE's latest Battlefield game launched on March 2, and is on pace to be the highest selling game for a month that also includes Final Fantasy and God of War. The initial interest in the game was so high, according to EA, that it actually overwhelmed their servers.
While we don't know about that (some servers are more easily overwhelmed than others), it looks like EA's timing with Bad Company 2 was just right; they grabbed the flag from Modern Warfare 2's dead body and ran it all the way to the bank.
