    Well I dunno, seems like a lot this late in a gen. But I do think it is going to get rave reviews and so we shall see.

    10m is a certainty. So I went for 10 to 11m, Halo is just a beast of a franchise.

    When asked about the lack of games in a post-event interview with GameTrailer TV’s Geoff Keighley, Microsoft’s Don Mattrick said: “Look, Xbox is created by gamers for gamers, so that’s our core. That’s our DNA. That’s what we do. We decided that we were going to do an unveil, tell people the name, let them see the box, let them see our vision. And we’re going to show such amazing content at E3. Be planned to be blown away.”

    I hope you're right! I would guess 9-10 million though

    My game of the year 2012

    My bet with Brendude13. He won.

    Sorry Gematsu, I'll never doubt you again.

    The best thread that never was.

    Halo 4 predicted sales chartz.

    Oh and I'd like to add...

    This will be the best FPS this gen. No question, no debate.

    That's right, I won't even debate it with anyone. The scale and production values of this are on a whole new level.

    No chance.

    1.) Halo as a series is on a slight decline, and gets fierce competition from COD.

    2.) All software sales are down this late in the gen (TheSource could probably show those charts which say SW is down 20% on a yearly basis and that has to reflect on big titles as well).

    3.) And there's not much time for having as long legs as say Halo 3 since Xbox 3 is only one year away and after that the interest in the X360 will rapidly decline.

    So a realistic expectation is 9 million lifetime for Halo 4.

    Come on nudge it a little higher 10 million?

    I think 6 million tops since the "halo killer" actually did come out.

    don't waste time

    Deluxe Wii U get!

    Anyone considered the possibility it might get a release on the Xbox's successor or be compatible, so the new trilogy in it's entirity would be on the next console. If so that could also have ahuge effect on any potential sales. Meanwhile I'll be realistic and say 8-9 million subject to the above happening.
