Activision has announced Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 exceeded $550 million in sell-through worldwide in the first three days it was available for sale, according to the company’s estimates. This makes Black Ops 3 the biggest entertainment launch of 2015, which includes movie ticket sales, music and book launches.
"Call of Duty's millions of passionate fans have shown us, yet again, the strength of their commitment to this enduring franchise," said Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick.

I wish I skipped the last two. This one was actually good.

for real? I was really let down by the last one, but I dug ghosts

I don't think I ever loaded Ghosts up. Kept meaning to but I was too absorbed in Tribes Ascend and Quake Live to touch it I think. I actually liked AW (though it felt a little too slow compared to Titanfall...but I thought the movement stuff was a nice idea (the execution was a little off, it was too jerky imho)).

Its funny because I think MW3 was my least favorite of the series.

Is Black Ops 3 all futuristic warfare like Advanced Warfare was? I hate that shit and much prefer the modern / ww2 scene.
Fucking jump packs? Lame.-
It seems fairly well balanced with the rest of the game. Maybe a little too low key for my tastes (I prefer the wallrunning in Titanfall, or better yet; full blown strafe jumping Quake3 style or skiing Tribes style...but I'm a bit extreme in my tastes regarding that).

As I found out here, that stat was misleading. $400 of software and hardware sales. It's unclear how well Halo 5 actually sold.
