Speaking at the company’s Analyst Day, Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick revealed that 60 percent of Call of Duty 4 owners play the game online.
It marks a rise in the number of multiplayer gamers; the growth can be credited to the easy availability of broadband connections that have enabled faster ping times and a smoother online experience. The game debuted at number four in the Xbox Live Top 10 Activity list and hasn’t left the list since.
