1943 has seen itself become the fastest-selling Xbox Live game on its opening day, as well as shattering the record for first-week sales as well. The title also showed a similar trend on the PlayStation 3, setting similar records for the PlayStation Network as it did for Xbox Live.
The game's brisk sales figures meant that the community's unlocking of the Coral Sea map - which required a target of forty-three million total recorded kills for each platform - came ludicrously fast with Xbox 360 players accomplishing the feat in five days, while the PlayStation 3 community hitting the mark eight days into the challenge.
"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."
