Well I was going off like... sales and online activity but I guess it was equally active on the forums now that I think of it.

I don't really know why people think that. Reach's highs for both the game and the website were significantly above Halo 3.
As for your primary question - we'll just have to see what the future brings, won't we?

(I chose H:3 over the height of Reach because 3 was MUCH more popular).
Snipe55, bro... you have Achronos's post quoted... and you still managed to misrepresent what he said.

According to Achronos, sales and online activity are significantly higher than Halo 3.
In sales, Halo: Reach dwarfed Halo 3.
In online activity, 4 years after release the Halo 3 Forums have 30,000 pages. Not even out a year, Halo: Reach has 23-24,000 pages. Don't even say that it is just troll threads, because Halo 3 had the troll problem as well.
As far as Live population, Halo: Reach is holding better numbers as it approaches its 1 year b-day, than Halo 3 did at this point.
I'm not trolling you bro, just wanted to bring this back into perspective for ya. Halo: Reach is actually a more successful game than any Halo that came before it.
But with the way 343 is going (possibly ripping off the look of B.net for Waypoint), I may not buy Halo 4. I think that naming the new trilogy "the Reclaimer Trilogy" is fine for books, but has been proven to be death for a video game. Look at the Shin Megami Tensei series...
I just don't think that that fits in with the Halo that I have loved for a decade... But I will reserve final judgement (and whether I will spend my money on it) for the end of 2012.
But I am not happy about Waypoint planning on ripping off Bungie.net's look!
Waypoint sucks hard, and they fail at making a web-site, so they rip off this one?!? They should hang their heads in shame.
