| HappySqurriel said: I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I don't think Halo 3 will sell at the same rate as Halo 2 so the PS3 may stay above the sales of Halo 3. The reason for this is that Halo 2 was released mid November 2004 on a system that was selling for $150; this resulted in both Halo 2 and the XBox being a very popular Christmas gift so in 1 Month an unbelieveable number of games had been sold. Halo 3 will sell rapidly to existing XBox 360 owners and lots of people may buy an XBox 360 to play it, but a large portion (maybe the majority) of its sales will come over the next 12 months as people buy it along with their XBox 360. |
We can determain this by how many xboxs were sold at the time, (15 million plus?) im guessing. Which means a higher ammount of people had an xbox then the 360 when halo 2 was released, so in order for halo 3 to keep up, it must have a higher attachment rate, which i think it will, but will it be enough? Im not so certain.
I think it can go both ways.
With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.
Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.
