Definitely Halo: Reach. You can argue a lot about life time sales, but when it comes to first week sales, it's a Halo game. It'll sell incredibly.

you could say that, but the preorder sales in AMERICA shows different...plus with odst out, and a beta coming up, its hard to see how GT is even close to the preorders that halo has in America...i mean just imagine in others 0_o

In this case, the preorders don't mean much. Just look at the recent sales of Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver versus God of War III. I expect Halo: Reach to be massive in America and Others. Wait for the preorders to ramp up.

i dont think so, i think gran turismo might be so much bigger in others, that it will take the different in the americas

 

and what do you mean by the recent sales of pokemon and gow? i dont understand how this is similar to Gt and Reach

God of War III had more preorders, but Pokemon still had bigger first week sales (well, it's been indicated that they will be higher or at least equal). This is because Pokemon is a more mainstream franchise, and it has more casual gamers who will pick up the game as soon as it comes out, but won't bother to preorder. It's a similar case for Halo and Gran Turismo. Although both are large franchises, and have many casual fans, Halo has the advantage in that respect.
