It seems that all that have been complaining about the price of the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Map Package are not making much of an impact on the sales front. Regardless of whether people are just sucking it up or don’t care about the price, the end result is still the same; Activision has already sold 2.5 million people on a purchased map package that many are suggesting should be free.

By way of comparison, most developers are struggling to sell 1 million downloads of add-on content for titles. (Not to mention that many downloadable Xbox Live Arcade titles struggle to hit the 1 million download mark!) That 2.5 million have paid for a map pack that is priced at $15, on a single platform, is impressive. Some analysts are suggesting that Activision will sell 10 million downloads of the Stimulus Pack before it is all said and done when the PlayStation 3 and PC versions are made available for download.

It is estimated that the take for Activision is close to $12 million so far on the Stimulus Package, and this sets an incredible precedent going forward. Despite the problems when it was released and the technical issues resulting from the release, it would appear that the demand for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 content is hot and Activision’s cash cow map fever isn’t even close to being exhausted.
