halo has already had some marketshare eaten up by call of duty and other shooters.  Another big shooter will take another small slice of the pie.  However, the core halo audience probably buy all these shooters anyway, so there will always be a market for halo...

I doubt you rationale. COD is a better pick up and play game.

Halo learning curve is steeper. Plus Halo sells consoles more than anything when it comes out.

thats funny, I feel the exact opposite about the games, but whatever.  It's not really hard to see that halo's marketshare has eroded somewhat.  Either through saturation of the franchise or from the shooter market as a whole. 

also, of course halo sells the most consoles, its the biggest exclusive shooter out there... not really sure what that has to do with what I said.  I did say Halo would always have a market, didn't I?  

Hmmm. Isnt Halo 4 the fastest selling Halo aligned for timeframe? Meaning it asnt eroded at all?

it just had a higher front load because of the larger install base.  It won't end up selling more than reach in the long run, so it will be 3rd best selling.  3>reach>4=sales decline.  Not huge, but it is there.
