When music albums sell a million copies they go platinum but in the UK when a game sells a million copies, they get the ELSPA diamond sales award.

The latest game to receive said award is none other than Modern Warfare 2 which has managed to sell over 1 million copies for the Xbox 360 in the UK alone and over 600,000 copies for the PS3.

Modern Warfare 2 will join the ranks of other games such as New Super Mario Bros, Mario Kart Wii, Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4 which have all also received the diamond sales award.
