2 million is still great and far from dead. Michael Jackson can still fill a concert today though. And keep in mind that he's not 22 anymore either. And comparing to thriller success is insane to keep up with. No one can keep up with that. Who sells 50 million+ copies of one album today? Is leonardo Dicaprio no longer talented cause every movie he does doesnt bring in Titanic type numbers?
Halo appeals to casuals. Thats where the success is and where hard core pc gamers get confused the hell out of. Half life, rainbow six, ect. doesnt appeal to them. Halo is a easy to pick up and play game for anyone. Rainbow six, ghost recon, and counter strike type games are way too difficult for most casuals. LIke 2 bullets usually kills you.
