One of my all time favorite multiplayer games, has just proved its quality when it came out as the Most sold game in 2007. The game, based on the Modern trends of warfare, which include UAV recons, Air-support, Brett 0.9 Caliber Rifles, the P9 smg and loads of other outclass weapons is a true gift for multiplayer fans, and only further establishes the series after the Call of Duty 2 took the world by storm.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare completely kicked 2007’s ass. This is the gist of the latest press release from Activision, which pulls out the NPD, Chart Track, and GFK Group numbers showing that not only has the game sold in excess of 7 million copies across all since its release in November, but also wound up selling the most units of any game on any system worldwide during calendar year 2007.

While the game came in third in US software sales behind Halo 3 and Wii Play, it turns out the United States is just one of many countries that thinks shooting other people is a worthwhile pastime. An extract from the post is given below:
