Subject: Will Halo Reach outsell Halo 3?

Do you think when all is said and done, Halo Reach will be the best selling Xbox 360 game of all time? Possibly, the best selling game this generation?

EDIT: Best selling EXCLUSIVE this generation.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Outsell Halo 3? Yeah, why not.

Outsell every other xbox game? Maybe, but have you SEEN the ratings on CoDMW2? Its not even out and more people have voted it FAR better than Halo 3, ODST, OR Reach.

Outsell all games this Generation? no, Multiplatformers that come out on the PC sell alot more than single-Console Games. That is why CoD is played more globally than Halo, it racks in PC, and PS3 gamers too.

I think that Halo: Reach will probably beat Halo 3's week one sales due to the fact that the install base is much larger now than when Halo 3 came out. However, I'm not so sure that it will beat Halo 3's overall sales. Halo 3's overall sales are already past 10 million and many of that million was bought through hype. While I definitely think that Halo 3 is an awesome game, many do not and will probably not buy Halo:Reach even though they bought Halo 3.

Betatesters are disposable.

Maybe, but i don't think it will outsell Halo 3 - because this was a kind of a release-title for the 360. There weren't much other games.

On the otherside, Halo 3 outselled CoD4, which is a multiplatform title...

everything is possible

Signatures are for squares.

Did Halo 2 outsell Halo 1?
Did Halo 3 outsell Halo 2?
I'm almost positive Reach will outsell Halo 3.

This is a true prequel. Halo 0 if you will. A 3 year project. Massive.
