"No, the Uncharted/Warhawk/Heavenly Sword statement is perfectly relevent. Halo 3 will outsell them all combined."

Yes it will but Halo don't have the impact that other game have since it was only release on Xbox console (and PC later ...). Xbox user base was pretty low.

at the opposite, PS2/PS user base was huge
and nintendo is so old and sell so many console NES/SNES/GAMEBOY/DS/WII
ect ..
So a lot of gamer have played ""classic"" Sony franchise as GT/MGS/FF/RE
or for nintendo Zelda/Mario/FF/DQ at least 1 time

BUT Halo was only played by the very restrcited Xbox user base.

So this game doesn't appeal a lot the average gamer that has already possessed nintendo and sony console (at least 1) with their own franchise

Halo will have good sales, be sure of this, but i dont see it as a big system seller that can save Xbox360.
It is an FPS and FPS graphism are important
Halo is already under CoD4, Gears of War, Killzone2/UT3
And for multiplayer, just go play UT3/CoD4 or Warhawk and it is ok

Microsoft is concentrate too many hope on this game
Concentrate hope (not too many) is ok since the game has already massive pre-command
but it comes from Halo fan that possess Xbox360 more than guys planning to buy Xbox360

Okay... Halo was only played by Xbox users, that much is true. But the game is still wildly popular, the most popular game on the platform. It will move consoles no matter how much some of you state otherwise. It will also sell like gang-busters. Hell, Gears has done well over 4m and it's a new franchise with a userbase around 8.5m when it launched.

And I'm sick of hearing about Halo's graphics. Everyone should just take a minute and go look at the new screenshots. Then go look at some shots of Gears. If you still think Gears is substantially better, you're blind. They're very close but I prefer the cleaner textures and richer colors of Halo to the muddy blacks and greys of Gears. The same applies to Killzone, but at least that game has time to improve its textures and look. UT3 is probably a tad better but much of that depends on your personal preference of art style. The only game that I will concede looks noticably better than Halo is CoD4. That game looks amazing with the wind effects, foliage, character models, textures, everything.

Go play UT or Warhawk for multiplayer? Yeah, people are going to flock in massive numbers to a PC-dominated FPS and a completely new IP over the most popular online console game in history.

And no one has ANY idea what percentage of people who are going to buy Halo already own a 360. Stop using that horseshit argument and use something quantifiable to back up your points.
