Gears Of War vende 2 ya millones de unidades
Los números de GoW no paran de crecer. Un juego que no lleva ni un mes en el mercado que haya vendido dos millones de copias es muchísimo... teniendo en cuenta que el juego más vendido para XBOX 360 hasta ahora era el COD2 con 1.7 millones (estimado), con el tiempo acumulado que lleva ese juego.
K — 15th December, 2006 — A video game champion has been crowned as today “Gears of War” made history by becoming the fastest-selling next-gen game of 2006 and the fastest-selling exclusive Xbox® game of all time.
Microsoft Game Studios and Epic Games Inc. today confirmed that “Gears of War,” the Xbox 360™-exclusive title, has sold more than 2 million copies worldwide since its release six weeks ago.
“‘Gears of War’ clearly has won the battle for the title of the must-have game of the year,” said Richard Teversham, Director of Platform & Marketing, Home and Entertainment Division EMEA. “Its phenomenal success is one of many reasons why Xbox 360 is the ultimate place to get together with friends to play this Christmas.”
“We’ve always held high hopes for ‘Gears of War,’ but we never expected such an overwhelmingly positive response from critics and gamers all over the world,” said Michael Capps, president, Epic Games. “I can’t describe how stoked our team is right now. Our fans can absolutely count on Epic to keep delivering new gameplay through Xbox Live®.”
