the FPS fanbase has been increasing TRUE
but since 2 years, Gears of War + CoD4-5-6 have both GROWTH a lot and I do believe damaged Halo3 cartoonish appeal.
Halo, on Xbox, is not anymore the King ...
(the game will still perform stellar sales numbers but will have a lower mediatic impact outside the Halo hardcore fanbase)

Halo is not king anymore? How was it the number 1 played game on Live last year?

well, put it like this :
Cod players are split between CoD4 - 5 - 6
Gears of War players are split between Gears 1-2
L4D players are split between L4D1-2
I m sure people still play a lot Halo3. You are right.
But the game is far from being a technical pearl, is far from being original and has been seriously outclassed by L4D/Gars and CoD.
The next game will sell but it will not be as big as Halo3 in term of global appeal : it is alone anymore on the Xbox system.

you just won the major-spin award.
Halo, being the no. 1 game played for three years in a row, declines, because it might be number two if we combine the players of three other games. Awesome.
Halo as a franchise is huge and still the game to beat on the Xbox 360. MW2 has a shot though, but we have to see.
