Todd McFarlane talks secret Halo 4 characters 343 is "pushing the envelope with the visuals, storytelling and gameplay"

@ cod release comment.
Halo is just about the only game out there that will sell exactly the same even if released on the same day as cod. Cod and halo have different fans. They play entirely different.

An example of this is in your local workplace. Half of us play halo half play cod. Niether group plays the other game. Hell I've given cod a go, and its to easy. Not enough skill involved. Wtf man with the gun attachments and level progression. Wtf with the airplane bombing runs etc. Its way to luck involved and the map design is poor in compariosn.
with halo its more about a level playing field and skill of the game.

Halo will sell fine alongside cod. In fact it would still open with 2mill+ on a same day release.
That is the power of halo and its fans. And the fact that its the next installment for the chief will go further in its favour. The chief cannot be messed with. If 343 pull out the best visuals on 360 to you can bet even cod fans would check it. Halo 4 will have much more advertising than cod.
People give cod to much credit. On 360 at least cod has frailites itself going against halo. The differene is tiny compared to say cod on ps3 vs killsone or uncharted.
If it was gears of war id agree. But halo no way. Its not scared of cod.
