"This is the same argument everyone keeps saying about Halo 3 not being a system seller. You do realize, as I stated above, that there isn't a Halo game on the 360? They were both original Xbox games. If someone were a Halo addict and that is all they really played, there would be no reason to get a 360 now would there? Sure, the 360 is backward compatible and I'm sure a lot of original Xbox owners have uprgraded, but this argument doesn't hold water and logically makes no sense whatsoever. If anything holds the 360 back it during the launch of Halo 3, it won't be lack of people wanting a console to play it but will much more likely be people concerned about the quality of the console... "
Yeah it holds water, Alot ppl bought the 360 in antipation of halo 3 and have been waiting for it to come. In threads about halo 3, I bet that most ppl there already have got their 360 for it and the minortiy are waiting to buy 360 when comes out.
Same goes for ps3 alot ppl who have bought in antipation of mgs4 etc.
There will be a small sales spike and then back to the same sales for the 360. Maybe lower because it has competion now, sony and nintendo will be dropping big games too, which will take sales away from the 360. just look at the big 3 Nintendo are dropping.
