Seriously? Sales?
So Wii Sports and Call of Duty are the greatest phenomenons due to sales?
How the hell is this still going on after all these years. Yes, when you love a franchise, you want it to sell well just as much as any fan of a game or company will lick their ass. Im a pro in this regard. But sales by no means says anything about the game if not showing a good marketing campaign. Unless we manage to filter out the word of mouth based upon the sales lmao.
Now if you analyze the games and share your opinion, well then atleast it is rather more personal hence people giving shit about reviews, but hopefully its reviewers who shares similar taste to themselves and not for example Bob from Welikegames who gives every game a 3/10 and only writes a score without any motivation (yes I just made that up).
Wake up fellas. Halo 4 would sell better but that does not make it the better game. The fact that you have to resort to these manners clearly shows a sheer desperation. Albeit one can argue that I show something similar as I am writing this. I choose however to believe that I am doing this because one decent person will see this and go "Fair enough" / "Good point" and thus fullfilling the purpose of a forum -> To share my thoughts.

Ive always operated under the one-two punch mentality: sales and meta. When I priase a game for its sales, chances are the meta is very respectable. Every mainline Halo is 90+ anyway so I fail to see your point. Its AAA in quality and sales. Wii Sports is 70's meta and COD is high 80's meta, rendering those examples refutable.

So Modern Warfare 2 having 94 Meta has it just as good as Halo 3 and since sold better => IS the better game?
Wow.

Granted MW2 was arguably the peak when the series wasn't getting too stale (it really only took off in 2007 and 2008 COD was a WW2 shooter).
90+ is 90+. No need to sweat the numbers if its above that. Its all AAA so you still didnt refute my comment how Halo has quality and sales to back it up.
But I will say this: Sales = Winner, not better. COD wins over Halo, but its all 360 so really, 360 wins. By comparison, the competition loses.
And all though I do cite meta, quality is always in the eye of the beholder. Many gamers would argue that MW2 was a better game. Many would argue for Halo. When 2 games are above 90, any argument can have merit because they are both surpurb games. Point: "Better" is subjective when dealing in 90+ games.
But clearly your citing the 360 version....cant give me any PS3 examples? :). Your really taking this to a different track. Halo mainline entries have 90+ quality and sell several millions. It can stand up to any PS3 exclusive like the LOU.
