Ecommerce sales for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 are extremely popular today with the debut of the multi-platform video game. Many brick and mortar stores had midnight sales with special launch events because of all of the excitement around the release of the next video game from the Call of Duty series. The best video game launch to date goes to “Grand Theft Auto 4,” which pulled in over $500 million as a result of selling 6 million copies last year in its first week. Industry analysts expected that overall sales of Modern Warfare 2 will be well beyond the previous records. While many people will race to their local video game or electronic store to purchase the game, many consumers are opting to shopping online. In fact, pre-order sales online of video games is becoming increasingly popular because it is so convenient and allows fans to guarantee they get a copy far in advance of the release date. If you do not already have your copy of the video game or any of the related Call of Duty accessories, then you should check out the online shops below and put what you want in your shopping cart.

Newegg.com is probably best known to most online shoppers for selling computers and computer accessories, but they also carry a wide selection of electronics and video games. They have Modern Warfare 2 games and accessories for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC. You can even pick up the Prestige Edition for Xbox or PS3 that includes fully-functional and wearable night vision goggles. If you want to get deeper into gaming and do not have an Xbox, then check out the 360 Elite Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition Bundle which includes everything you need. Not many people will have a chance to put this Limited edition Xbox 360 Console with an exclusive design in their shopping carts.

Buy.com is another great ecommerce site where you can purchase almost anything you need, including Modern Warfare 2 games and accessories. Some of the best accessories inspired by the game include Xbox combat controllers and throat communicator as well as PS3 controller face plates and bluetooth wireless headsets. This is appealing to many consumers wanting to avoid the rush of going to the store and instead shop online from the convenience of their own home.
