World of Warcraft
Blizzard Entertainment has reportedly broken the day-one sales record to earn the title of the fastest-selling PC game in North America and Europe with nearly 2.4 million copies of Burning Crusade sold in the first 24 hours.

The expansion to the popular World of Warcraft was delayed, but that didn’t seem to slow down the desire to buy on the part of the game’s many fans. As the first-ever expansion for WoW, the title put some serious add ons into the game.

With more than 8 million subscribers worldwide, WoW retains the title of being the biggest MMORPG in history and it’s honestly not showing signs of slowing down.

“The Burning Crusade has already exceeded even our most ambitious expectations,” Mike Morhaime, president and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment has been quoted as saying. “We’re pleased that so many players are eager to see all of the new content that the expansion has to offer, and we look forward to seeing everyone online as additional players continue to upgrade in the days ahead.”
