Halo Reach down 45% and still looking good to beat Halo 3. (Halo 3 dropped over 50% week 2 to 3 in EMEAA)

Not sure how (narrowly) outdoing Halo 3 in the first three weeks = good to beat it. It'll take years at this rate. You can't make an accurate prediction spanning that amount of time based on three weeks!

well its beating it which is the only measure we have.

Its more likely that it will than it ownt given the current data.

Unless you have some curious method which shows the opposite.

Not nearly likely enough to call it "good". Just seems like a typical same console sequel being more frontloaded to me. I can give you a million examples *Gears 2 wave*  Come back in six months.

I don't see the problem with Gears 2.

Gears 2 has current LTD sales of 5.9m in it's 99th week, Gears 1 had 5.15m sales in it's 99th week.

At the end of these holidays Gears 2 will most likely have more sales than Gears 1, thus making up a 2 years difference.

And given how Gears 1 did, Gears 2 should have no problems reaching 7m sales.
