Halo 3: ODST is not going to sell 5 million like some people are saying, at least I don't see it. I'm a huge Halo fan but the it is a Halo game without MC, the Halo name is starting to get milked making it less special and the main multiplayer shooter on the 360 is going to be MW2 so I think ODST will reach 3 million tops. I don't know I'm probably just on crack.

Call of Duty 5 is a call of duty made by Treyarch and its not modern warfare. It sold really well too.

Call of Duty: WaW sold well because it was riding off the coat rails of Modern Warfare 1. CoD4 revived the CoD series and sky rocketed it into a mainstream AAA title instead of a dying WW2 shooter.

But you see, Call of Duty wasn't a dying series. Also Halo 3 was the biggest shooter release on the Xbox 360, bigger even than Call of Duty 4. So if Call of Duty 5 can do it without modern warfare and the original developers then Halo ODST can do it without the master chief and with the original developers.

Sure it was a dying series. Look at the sales of the CoD franchise prior to CoD4 and then look after. CoD5 got majorly boosted by CoD4 sucess and most main stream people don't know that there are different developers. However, most people do know that MC is not in ODST.

 

ODST will sell well because it is a quality shooter on the 360 and it has the Halo name, but it wont be anything like what we saw with Halo 3. That is how I feel anyway. We will have to wait and see when the games come out.
