"We believe the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the biggest launch in entertainment world, and we scored record sales of just two countries," said Bobby Kotick, CEO, Activision Blizzard, as reported by Tech Radar, Saturday (11/12/ 2011).

"In addition to Call of Duty, there was never any other entertainment franchises that are able to make a record for three consecutive years," he said.

"Even the success of CoD can only be rivaled by movies like Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings, which is the most successful entertainment of all time," said Kotick.
