Let's get this out of the way. Never underestimate Microsoft's uncanny ability to hype something skyhigh. Halo 3 doing 3.8 million in two days on a userbase of about 11 million really shows how popular the game is in the userbase. Look at how much Modern Warfare 2 sales increased from the CoD4. Go look at the launch of Gears 2 compared to Gears 1. The launch numbers are only going to go up from Halo 3, and once Microsoft starts talking the game up, showing the game off, advertising the game, etc. I think it has a good chance at passing Modern Warfare 2.
themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.
