So I was curious to see how many pre-orders in America Halo 3: ODST had the week before it launched and I came accross this.
Halo 3: ODST had 753,899 pre-orders in the US the week before it came out. Then its launch week it sold 2,215,718 copies in its first week WW.
Now when you do the math on that Halo 3: ODST sold 2.94 times more then what the pre-orders in the US were before it launched.
Now imagine if the same type of increase happens for Halo Reach (which is very possible)
If Halo Reach doess 200k more pre-orders each week before it launches (which it will without a doubt) then the total US pre-orders for Halo Reach will be at 1,858,990.
If it sells about 2.9 times as much as the pre-orders for it are then it will have an opening week of 5.4 million which would make it the biggest launch EVER on a single console.
What are your thoughts? Do you think it will sell like ODST?
