| foodfather said: It will happen. Poeple seem to forget that the COD fanbase is mainly casuals, these guys only buy two or three games a year, the token COD game and the token sports game. When next gen launches, casuals (COD fanbase) will not buy new consoles straight away, they cant afford it. That is where Halo will come in and reign as the king of FPS sales once again. |
I hate to say it, but the Halo fanbase is mostly "casual" players too. Any game that sells that many copies speaks to a huge audience, made up mostly of people who are casually interested in video games.
@OP: It won't happen next-gen, and I don't think it will happen at all. Call of Duty, like most evergreen titles, relies on a formula of "lather, rinse, repeat," and thus is likely to outlast Halo, which can only move in so many directions. Does Halo deserve to be the king? Probably. Will it? I'd be surprised.
