Halo 2/3 fanboys.... Is this really all you can come up with?
Someone gives you facts, and legitmate arguments and you run behind the same damn wall every single time?
Who said ANYTHING about population? Do you know how many factors plays in a game's population?
Was Call of Duty the juggernaut it is now in 2007? NO.
Was Zombies mode available whenever Halo 3 came out? No.
Was there Red Dead Redemption, Little Big Planet, Uncharted, Batman Arkham City available? Did Street Fighter 4 exist?
Was Xbox Live cheaper? Did Xboxs break within that time frame? Did people who play Halo 3 age in three years and went off to college preventing them from jumping immediately into Reach?
Was it launched as early in the 360's career as Halo 3? Were people converted to Battlefield 3 the next year?
You Halo 2/3 sorely irritate me(Which you enjoy judging by your responses), Halo 3 isn't Halo's "heyday" it launched at the right time, at the right place(Everywhere?).
Basically what you halo 3 fans are saying is in a alternate universe where Reach came first and Halo 3 was the game that came out in 2010, you think the population would still be 250,000?(This number is a lie, I played Halo 3 since launch and it never averaged this)
In the face of better games like Uncharted 2, Arkham Asylum, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Street Fighter 4, Grand theft Auto 4, Red Dead Redemption, Call of Duty and many more? You're out of your mind, you guys don't understand anything that's not a Battle Rifle.
We got WAY off-topic, I just had to shut up this population argument once and for all.
Nobody challenged my argument legitmately, they just went around the world on a wild goose chase because. "Hao wreak sux! i got2 ues a pis0l @nd Uhsualt wrifkle? hao wreak sux!#@!"
And this is how it all started off.
I gotta little proposition to make, only the strong will answer.
I believe you guys already have an account with Halo Waypoint right?
I want you Halo 2/3 fans to link your gamer tag to there and make your stats available, and after a month had passed after Halo 4, we'll take a look at your tools of destruction.
It's Battle Rifle 50%(or more) and everything else fits into the other 50%, I think I would have proved my point.
I just proved(Yes, it's proven), that population had more do with the games and industry at that time, and it had almost nothing do with that Halo: Reach was missing the Battle Rifle.
Since 343i is stroking you guys hard, I know you could careless about the other side of the Halo community but anyone with a lick of sense knows that Halo 4 is for Halo 2/3 elitists throughout, to the fact that s much emphasis was put on the Battle Rifle returning.
"The Battle Rifle is back! Halo 3 kids rejoice!."
Mr EOS plz go away.
