Won't happen. Really guys, I'm a x360 fan and your predictions are making all of us look bad. I can give you a nice list of a bunch of games that didn't outsell the game they followed on the PS2 even though install base was doubled.

MGS2 was released when there was 15.5m PS2 install base and sold 5.58m copies. MSG3 (the prequel like Reach will be) had a 73.5m PS2 install base and only sold 4m copies.

Lemme put it this way... a friend of mine and I are not that interested in getting Halo Reach. YOU'RE TELLING ME that you are going to find 2 people that DIDN'T buy Halo 3 that are going to go buy Halo Reach???

Come on, lets get real. It's a prequel!



Oh don't worry, one day you'll go over to a friend that has ODST and play the beta a bit, and when you do you'll realize that Reach will have the definitive MP ever to grace any game.  And that the campaign itself will be absurdly amazing.

Just a note: the majority of Halo players buy Halo's for the MP, not the single player.

BS...Halo 1 sold 6.45m with no MP. 

Cough*system link*Cough  

 

Halo 1 MP is the single largest reason I own a 360 today because it got me hooked on the Halo series.  Even though I don't game online all that much I still love Halo.  But yeah, saying Halo 1 had no MP is the height of ignorance.

Oh yes...total ownage. I was obviously referring to xbox live mp, not lan parties. Nonetheless, many people bought the halo game for it's story and don't give two shits about a prequel. I'll be laughing come September.
