It's a hit: Gears of War surpasses 2 million sales

While the Xbox 360 is unlikely to yield a success story as strong as Halo 2 for the original Xbox until, well, Halo 3 ships in 2007, this holiday season has given Microsoft its first obvious hit. Gears of War, which was developed by Epic Games and published by Microsoft's in-house games studio, has now sold over 2 million units. That means, for example, that there are at least 5 times as many people playing that game worldwide as there are PlayStation 3 users. No matter how you slice it, Gears of War is a huge success.
