If that's true, that's insane. The old record for the most pre-orders for a game was Zelda Ocarina of Time for the 64, and that was like 300 000.

Actually, the most pre-orders for a game was 675,000 for Wind Waker.


And whoever said 3 mil is a freaking moron. Halo 2 will undoubtedly break the preorder record (and probably already has). I'm guess 1 million worldwide. But come on, it's been given a really long time to get its preorders up.

Halo sold 3.5 million, so I'm guessing Halo 2 will hit around 5 or 6 million. That's pretty good for an Xbox game, but it won't get the recognition or numbers of Mario/Zelda/Square-Enix games.

Dude, no offense, but in case you're not aware, this game has more hype than all the other games combined. And I wouldn't be surprised if it got 3 mil actually.












But I doubt it.
