"Come on. Both FF and GT5 will sell better than Halo. The PS3 will have an install base of atleast 20 million consoles by next winter" - Jandre02
So assuming PS3 hits 7M - 8M this year they are going to manage to move another 12M - 13M in the following 12 months? A system that has been hardpressed to move 300K units a month will start to average 1M units a month ....
I sincerely doubt that given that a number of the games you mentioned will probably be launched in the second half of the year and only impact 6 months.
As for FF or GT5 selling more than Halo ... the installed base of 360 makes this unlikely given that so far 360 users buy more games than either Wii or PS3 owners. So larger install base plus higher attach rate plus DLC means Halo will sell plenty more copies in the next 12 months.
As for Sega ... maybe M$ will buy them although they are not in the habit of purchasing companies that have little future value.
