So how big has Modern Warfare 2 (PC, PS3 and Xbox 360) become? Well, you can forget about Grand Theft Auto IV's previous US$ 500 million video games record and Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince's US$ 394 million five days post launch box office record. According to the estimates of Activision, the latest installment of the Call of Duty franchise has so far generated $550 million worldwide in just five days to set an all-time entertainment industry record, shattering all previous first-and five-day entertainment industry box office, book and video game sell-through records.

Still can't get enough of Call of Duty in your life? Well, today is your luck day as Activision has released the first official iPhone game of the Call of Duty franchise. Call of Duty: World at War: Zombies is a first person shooter game that recreates the Zombie survival mode found in the console version of Treyarch's Call of Duty: World at War.

More news from the BMO Capital Markets Forums. It looks like Activision's got something up their sleeves for Call of Duty online players. More fees to be paid.

This is the week, guys! No more filler games! Well, alright, so we still have a couple of titles from the Imagine and Petz series, but never mind that. Big titles are coming out this week, and the publishers did not fail to beef up the lineup just before the Black Friday sales. It's a deluge of games, alright. Can your wallet handle it?

Pop quiz for all of you who already blazed through Modern Warfare 2's single-player campaign. You know who Ghost is? He's the guy with the badass skull mask, and word is he might be up for a game of his own.

The Russians are angry. Apparently, they did not like how the controversial airport massacre level in Activision's blockbuster game was named the "No Russian" mission.

We do know that Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, and PC) made some record-breaking debut all over the world.

If Activision's internal estimates are to be believed, then the much-hyped, much-anticipated launch of Modern Warfare 2 for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC was successful as it was planned out to be, selling five million copies on its first day in North America and the UK combined.

Although Blizzard has always been one to decline from giving out any release projections unless they're damn sure they'll meet it, StarCraft II's 2010 launch seems to be firmly set in stone. Not so for Diablo III, which was most recently given one hell of a wide release window.

In a total "Stick It To The Man" attitude, website Call of Duty Hacks is claiming that the much-hated IWNET system for Modern Warfare 2 (PC, PS3 and Xbox 360) has already been hacked into. A YouTube video showed a ranked PC match, along with the player blatantly using a wide variety of cheats.
