Well, I know its graphics aren''t in Killzone's league (or Modern Warfare 2) and its gameplay isn't in Gear's league. I will bet you half my vgchartz dollars that Halo 3 won't sell 3 million additional copies following Halo: ODST's release and the end of the year and the other half that Halo: Reach won't sell over 5 million next year.

You must be a strong dude to move those goalposts around so much.

     He said he would bet that ODST would 3 million copies this year.  Well, it will probably do that well with people that have already bought Halo 3 since it is an expansion.  But the real test would be if it could move 3 million new copies of itself and Halo 3.  So, if 3 million new copies of Halo 3 are sold following the release of ODST, I would say it has demonstrated selling power.  I've said Halo Reach will only sell half the amount that Halo 3 did i it is a standalone if Reach is an expansion, it shouldn't do any better than ODST.  So, if Reach is a standalone, I bet it won't sell over 5 million in 2010 and if it is an expansion like ODST it won't move 3 million new copies of Halo 3.
