The estimated 4.2 mill for week 1 would mean Halo received 400,000 more fans, give or take, depending on it's lifetime. For those who expected 5 mill week 1, it's not that 4.2 mill is disappointing, but rather your expectations were a little high.

Before they can truly be pegged as disappointing, lets see how the legs are. Keep an eye on the week-to-week (in conjunction with Halo 3). Chances are, Reach will still pull off 11-12 million.


Okay, again, the numbers are above Halo 3 and the 2nd biggest launch on one platform of all time. How can they ever "truly be pegged as disappointing?"

Whoa, calm down there sir, I'm not saying the numbers are. I'm saying that's really the only way to track that.

I'm saying that anybody concluding these numbers to be disappointing is dillusional. There is no way anybody can ever make 4 million sales in the first week ever look disappointing.
