The receipts have been tallied, and COD 4 is the best-selling game of 2007. The first-person shooter smashed sales records, clearing a staggering seven million units since its debut in November. Lest anyone accuse me of being disloyal to my first love, Halo, I should point out that the further adventures of the Master Chief [...]
