Considering Reach broke Halo 3s monetary sales record (thus, making more money), gamble successful.
Reach failed to hold H3's population for more than a month.
Gamble lost.
Also, got a link to your statement or are you just pulling the numbers from an area where the sun don,t shine.
Reach broke H3s sales number day one. This is actually common knowledge. The gamble was that Reach was going to make more money. Guess what, it did. Population at any given time has nothing to do with the people that buy the game. Plenty can buy it and not play it very often, MS still has your money. Remember launch day with close to 2 million people on line? I don't suppose they got it all for free, eh? Granted, Halo 3 may have sold more PHYSICAL COPIES, but it hasn't made more money then Reach.
Though since you're the Halo 3 population super expert, do YOU have a link to some numbers? Also, could you answer me this?
A) All the way up until Sept 14th 2010, people played Halo 3, right? Then Reach launched.
B) Hundreds of thousands of people stop playing Reach, because it's a "Halo that's not Halo"
C) Halo 3 never sees the population it once did again.
So, hundred of thousands (hell, I've even seen someone say 'millions') of people leave Reach, want a competitive Halo title that feels like Halo, and instead of playing Halo 3, they what? Vanish? Went to CoD instead?
