We just received intel that there will be a week of Call of Duty: World at War double XP beginning December 5th, but that it’s semi-exclusive. Only World at War collector’s edition purchasers will have access to the XP fun. Those who registered their World at War CE copy (register it here) will have access to a special “Officer’s Club” playlist that’ll award twice the XP and (hopefully) twice the fun. Remember, the week of two-times XP begins December 5th and wraps at 11:59AM pacific on Friday, December 12th. At ease, soldier.

GI.biz reports that first week sales of Call of Duty: World at War in the UK have exceeded first week sales of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare by a margin of more than 2 to 1. The game landed in the number one spot in the UK for all platforms according to Chart-Track. Considering the previous installment sold over 10 million copies, it’s not too surprising that the latest has managed to pick up significant sales. Another thing that isn’t too surprising (though perhaps a little alarming) is that Activision published games make up more than 25% of all game sales in the UK last week (thanks in no small part to the Lich King).

The next step: Activision acquires a little start-up named Cyberdyne Systems. You know the rest.
