- GAME THRONES Season 2 DVD Breaks Records
The Season 2 DVD has been out a week and already it has proven a slayer in the home video market. Tallies show that on the first day of sale alone 241,000 units were sold. That, according to HBO, topped Season One’s DVD launch by 44% making The Season 2 set the highest selling home video release for HBO. Needless to say, HBO hopes that this momentum will keep GAME OF THRONES going strong for Season 3 and beyond. In part, it is due to loyal fans like the ones that frequent HBOWatch.
