1st bolded:



there you go.

 

2nd bolded: people enjoyed the previous games that's why halo 2 sold 6M+...because the Halo 1 userbase bought the 2nd one...halo 3 it's selling 2 years after launch because it's being bundle + best selling game on console + best franchise in 360 ( if you buy a 360, then you should buy halo 3...)

3rd bolded: do you know how much money is that? if MW2 had a 300M campaign...then Halo 3 numbers + natal could be easily a Billion!

1: That's the point I'm trying to make with Halo 3 sales.  You acknowledge that people bought the second because they liked the first, yet sales of the third are only due to massive marketing and bundling?  Something does not compute in your logic.

2: Bullshit.  Stores bundle games to increase the value, and since Halo 3 can be had for 10$ used that adds essentially no value to the bundle.

3: Even though I'm pretty sure you pulled that 1B dollar figure out of your ass, a quick look at MS balance sheet shows that they have over 31B dollars in short term investments, cash, and cash equivalents.  $6B of which is already pure cash anyway.  They have money to burn.
