Erik - It's doubtful that even GTAIV would outsell Halo 3 in the US/Europe on the 360 alone. Worldwide including sales from the 360 + PS3, yes, but not just on 360. Halo 2 sold 6m units in the US alone on the 360. That's 1 out of every 2.5 (roughly) Xbox owners in the US that own a copy. GTAIII through SA sold less than 2m on the 360. Not saying that GTAIV won't improve hugely, but Halo 3 is all but guarenteed similar results in the US, if not more. I'm sticking my neck out but: US Sales - Halo 3 - 8.0m units lifetime sales GTAIV - 6.0m units lifetime sales Now, I DO believe that GTAIV will do more to propell the 360 to a broader market than Halo3 will, as it helps embolden the 360 market into more casual/mainstream markets as opposed to Halo 3's hardcore shooter market. I dont think there's one major generation defining title. Wii Sports is the Wii-defining title, but I don't think it'll be the generation's defining title (as was GTAIII-SA were last gen in the west markets) Each system has it's uber-sellers: Halo 3 - 360 FFXIII - PS3 Wii Sports - Wii But just like the market is going to be so severely fragmented this generation, there won't be a true winner. Maybe Wii Sports 2 on the Wii 2, however.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
