I hate to be the one to give you the bad news ...

Halo was never even close to being the best FPS on the market and still sold amazingly well because it was really marketed well. Halo 3 will probably not be even close to being the best FPS on the market and it will still sell amazingly well.

When you have

  1. An established IP
  2. A massive marketing budget
  3. A moderately large userbase
  4. A popular genre

it doesn't really matter how good your game is it will sell well.

(Please note, I'm not saying that Halo is a bad game I'm just saying it was never the best game; on top of that Halo 3 looks like it will be a very good game but I don't think that is going to impact sales much)

Thats why gamespot gave it a perfect 10. And everyone is comparing other fps to halo or gears.
