Since its launch on July 8, Battlefield 1943 has recorded over 600,000 units sold across both consoles. Having already broken launch day Live Arcade sales and single week sales for a Xbox 360 Arcade release, the record breaking wasn't done yet.
Now, the big question surrounding all of this is: "Will the sales of the PC version, when it is released, outpace that of the consoles?" It will be an interesting thing to keep an eye on when that time comes around.
The brisk sales meant that the community's unlocking of the Coral Sea map, a goal set at 43,000,000 total recorded kills for each platform, came ridiculously fast on Xbox Live, having been accomplished after just six days on Xbox Live.
"We are honored by the reception that the game has received so far," said EA producer Gordon Van Dyke. "Watching and participating in this non-stop multiplayer action has been a real treat for us and we can't believe how fast our fans reached 43 million kills."
