If these numbers are accurate, I can see Halo 4 doing a 2 million first week, which would be just awesome. That should but won't silent the haters saying Halo is on its way out. It is funny, that they say the same thing about Gears, Fable and CoD.


2 million first week? That would be a disappointment, surely, for a mainline Halo title at this point.


huh, I was so sure someone posted Halo: Reach opened with a 1.6 million units in the US.
Make it 2.6 million, which would be a nice 8.5% increase over Reach, which did amazingly well.

the thing is halo reach launched in september. Halo 4 is launching in November during the middle of the holidays. If its opening is not significantly higher than halo reach's it won't be able to reach halo reach's lifetime numbers.

As for the preorders compared to halo reach they are not suprising. Halo 4 already got its e3 boost a month and a half ago, while halo reach is just starting to get its e3 boost now on the alligned chart. The big factor will be the later preorders.
