After 5 weeks on the market God of War 3 has surpassed the 2,000,000 units sold mark, and continues to sell. This data is according the VGChartz.com. God of War is not the only one passing a new benchmark in sales. It appears that Socom: Confrontation has also surpassed 1 million units sold. This is even despite the game being highly criticized for bugs. The bundled in headset and Socom branding name may have helped push this game further than expected. Any thoughts?

Since when did selling 2 million copies become a 'new benchmark in sales'? GTA IV, Gran Turismo prologue, Halo 3, MGS 4 and Uncharted 2 among many others have crossed this milestone with ease.

Resist the urge to give way to hyperbole

just over 2 million? thats disappointing for a game with a reputation like god of war. modern warfare 1 sold 13million and halo 3 sold 8 million. even odst which was just an expansion sold 3million.
