And, the Call of Duty franchise, collectively, is technically more popular than Halo. CoD has sold 35 million copies collectively, while the Halo franchise has only sold 27 million.
Keep in mind that Halo is on one platform though. CoD is on 3 different platforms. Now if the 360 version ALONE outsold halo, then I could see it as being more popular or well received. There is no denying though that Halo has had WAY more of a cultural impact that most other games. The only other one I can think is GTA, but thats because of controversy and wide media plubicity. Ask anyone just walking on the streets what halo was and I guarantee that at least 75% know what you are talking about.
Now that is pretty incredible for the bad rep that video games have as a whole to the people outside the video game loop.
