When Star Wars came it changed an industry, it was not just a movie anymore, it became mass market product and a it was a first for the movie industry. Remember how Spaceballs parodied this with the whole..Spaceballs the Toilet Paper, Spaceballs the Lunchbox ......etc. gag? This is what we have come to know as a "blockbuster" event. We all loved Star Wars and it was deserving of it, but do you think SpiderMan 3 was worthy of all the marketing it recieved? FF7 may have sold alot, but there was no Happy Meal, no soft drink, no mass market. Halo has it, whether it deserves it or not is irrelevant, it shows that for the first time a video game has enough public interest to warrant this kinda marketing. It shows that the video game industry is now just as relevant as the movie industry. This is a big day for video games, and i am happy for it.
Personally, i do think this game deserves it though, Halo has been very good to me over the years.
