Wow John you're very passionate about this stuff, I'm really impressed.
I also would like to add to your analysis that while Super Mario Galaxy received at least one third of Halo's advertising campaign, it didn't in fact receive one third in the sells.As of right now Smg sits at a little more then half of Halo sells and Smg is possibly able to shorten the gap between the two. After all who wouldn't be curious to play what is deemed the second highest rated gaming history.
