Its just for the advertisement, MW2 for the Xbox haven't sold past 11 million
And by the way this site:http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/games/halo3#video_1
It shows that Halo 3 sold 14.5 million copies as official statistics



                                  

                                       That's Gordon Freeman in "Real-Life"

So either...

We have way undertracked Modern Warfare 2.

or

We have way overtracked Halo 3

or

Activision bought MW2 reviews.

Have Bungie/MS ever released shipment data of Halo 3?

Yes. Yes they did Carl!

^From the positioning of the em-dash, I'd read that as the series selling more than 14.5M.

Fully agree. But... It's damn addictive if you love CoD

@Kenoid
That's talking about the Halo series before Halo 3. Halo 1 + 2 if you look at this site, are at a combined 14.8M units.

Halo 3 is the concluding chapter in the Halo trilogy—an international award-winning action series that grew into a global entertainment phenomenon, selling more than 14.5 million games worldwide, logging more than 650 million hours of multiplayer action on Xbox LIVE.

from the halo 3 official site...

Who are they using as a source?

God I would absolutely love it if Halo 3 has sold over 14.5 million copies.

Is everyone just glossing over that word?  The Halo series has sold more than 14.5 million games worldwide.  Also, this statement is probably from the Halo 3 launch, so only includes Halo 1 (I think it sold around 5 million) and Halo 2(~9 million according to VGC).

They are talking about Halo:CE and Halo 2. It's pretty easy to see that by how it's worded... And with them having combined sales of 14.8M

They're probably not counting the halo 3 bundled copies.
If not, just a marketing trick, because they know it'll surpass halo 3 in the future and used that to sell a product in the now.

(Halo: CE + Halo 2) alone sold more than 14.5 million.
