Anyone who says the Call of Duty franchise is one big cash cow is right on the money (hah!).The latest entry in the series has become the quickest to reach a milestone most game publishers only ever dr🅷eam about - $1 billion in sales revenue.

It's less than a month and a half since Call of Duty: Black Ops was released on November 9th. That day it raked in ꦫmore money than any video game - or any entertainment product at all, for that matter - has ever accumulated in the US on alaunch day. And sales have only continued to climb.

In addition to that, it set♓ the sales record for the most sales revenue in its first five days and also became the most widely played launch game in Xbo♔x Live history. Activision is having a very merry Christmas this year.
