| superhippy420 said: I really doubt it for two reasons. The first is that the online communities right now on Halo Reach and 4 are tiny compared to what they used to be for years on 2 and 3. People have lost interest faster than ever. The second is that even though Halo 4's numbers look really great right now, it dropped down to $30 standard retail faster than any other Halo game, ever, plus lots of stores have been selling it for as low as $15 brand new. I remember 1,2,3, and Reach all being expensive for a while. The only way that it will do over 10 million is if they truly innovate and make something that feels and looks fresh. People pick on the number of Zelda and Mario games Nintendo has made but almost all of them feel fresh and new compared to previous entries, which is why they still consistently sell well. |
Mario games rarely feel fresh and new, I've played enough of them to know that. Recent Zelda games haven't been the best selling in the series. Also you say those series still sell well. Have past Halo games games bombed? I'm pretty certain Halo 4 did extremely well.
During Black Friday I did not see any stores selling Halo 4 for $15. But I did see some retailers selling GTAV for $20. Hence, your example proves nothing.
