EA: BC2 won’t beat Modern Warfare this time

According to EA, Bad Company 2 won’t beat arch rival Modern Warfare this time, at least when it comes to sales. Considering that Modern Warfare 2 sold over 12 million copies, and Bad Company 2 has just passed 5 million, it’s a no-brainer that Bad Company 2 won’t beat it.

However, Bad Company 2 did get a lot of the market share for online shooters, and, as EA points out in an interview in MCV, the game also grows the audience.

EA and DICE are rumored to be working on Battlefield 3 at the moment, and Bad Company 2 should be a good testing ground for the new engine, and to increase the fan base for future Battlefield games.
