^^^ haha, GoW isn't a huge franchise apparently, as if Halo is THAT much bigger outside of 2007's Halo 3...

Do people forget the latest numbered GoW sold around 6.5m (was 5.2m as of May 2012 according to Sony so Vgchartz is way off). The latest Halo is around 9.5m, not really that huge a gap, especially considering marketing budgets, genres, release dates etc.

And I don't believe the MCC will outsell all SKUs of the GoW Collection combined which currently stand at around 3.5m at retail alone, and they should be combined since it's still the same game. I'd guess around 3m for the MCC, it'll be close.

Haha it wouldn't be as much for the kids as it was for the older community who actually enjoyed them when they were new. CoD 1-3 would be the children repellent (thank god) and may as well put CoD4 in there because it is considered the "best game in the franchise" and it does show a pretty good evolution from 1 - 4. Rather than an evolution from CoD 4 and up it has devolved into the mess it is now, with most of the internet condemning it to hell (which never used to happen). If kids do buy it they can try the games that weren't catered to 24/7 sniping or the so called "noob" tactics used today.

Hmm..really doubt more people would be more excited to play CoD 1-4 over halo 1-4, if it did sell more it would only sell more because it is multiplatform. CoD 1-3 really isn't remembered as much as the halo trilogy, the first CoD didn't even release on consoles and the second only came to xbox 360 out of consoles. The third was just an alright game and nothing more and the only real game to garner any significant interest would be CoD 4, when it changed.

The kids will be just fine buying them though, CoD 2 and 4 had a significant array of noob tactics and the bolt action sniper in both was a death machine.

You're right can't really argue those points. I'd tell em to go crazy and put all 10 CoD's in a single collection but I doubt that would be very wise in terms of profits :P

MCC will easily outsell it by a lot.
God of War trilogy is good but it isn't Halo, Halo 2 and Halo 3 good.

Activision are reading this readying the WW2 CoD collection, Modern Warfare collection, Treyarch CoD collection, Infinitry ward CoD collection and Black Ops collection haha :P

For me the major draw with Halo : mcc is the hours and hours of co-op campaign gameplay.

That alone makes it a day one purchase for me. Add in all the multiplayer maps and modes and i dont see God of war standing a chance sales wise.
