Trends: March

In our tracking of the popularity of COD2, we have been comparing it against Battlefield 2142 - probably its biggest rival. Here's the latest Trend History from Google.

Trend History is a total of the searches done on a particular topic on Google, worldwide, over time and is a good indication of popularity.


As you can see the popularity of both COD and 2142 have stabilized. The remarkable thing is that COD2's popularity has not waned for almost a year now!

That's great news for all the COD devotees and especially for clan leaders and web server hosts who have dedicated so much time and money to their COD hobby.
