As soon as Black Ops comes out that MW2 number will drop from 390k to about 20k.

Outscore? Oh hell no.
Outsell? Sadly, it probably will.
I expect Black Ops to score closer to World at War than Modern Warfare 2. Of course, reviewers have been known to inflate scores based on hype/name in the past (MW2, GTAIV), so Black Ops could benefit from this. As far as sales go, I think it'll have a much better opening than Reach. Maybe even better than MW2. However, I expect its legs to drop off pretty fast, much like World at War didn't have near the staying power of MW 1/2. Reach could edge it out in the end.

The could be a big possibility that Black Ops will affect Halo Reach's legs. Not in the sense that it won't reach 8 Mil or something but it may take longer for Halo Reach to reach 10 Mil because of Black Ops. That's what yo John is trying to say I think. |
I know one thing, I didnt get Halo reach because I'm getting Black Ops .....I'm considering getting Reach but later on... I wont bother getting Medal of Honor at all, it will be totally ignored if I do.

You know how many times Halo 3 charted over MW2 in players online this and last year? I happens... and means nothing.
Halo Reach is the last authentic Halo, done by people who created it...few years from now when microsoft and their hired goons butcher halo 4, you can make this thread but for now its a little silly.
On the personal opinion side, I really don't care who outsells who, but I do know that I can name 15 FPS games I would rather play than any COD. And Medal of Honor isn't on that list... Those 2 will soon be compeeting in the "who can make a more generic, scripted, rail shooter FPS game every year" tournamnet.

Did that actually happen? I was under the impression that Halo 3 never beat MW2 for the amount of players online (everytime I looked MW2 had about 400k online and Halo 3 had 120k online on average)

To be honest, I dont know. I never owned MW2 and just rented it so ive never compared trends, etc... I just guessed that were times when Halo 3 had higher amount of people online and was hoping someone else would prove me right :)

Bungie will return to make Halo 4. Mark my words.
Halo 3 was supposed to be the last ever Halo game and well we have seen Halo 3: ODST and Halo Reach released two and three years after the launch of Halo 3. Last Halo game ever is a marketing gimmick to sell more copies of the game.

Neithor of which had any level that took place on a Halo, or had Master chief in them. Therefore, Bungie did not lie. The only reason they used Halo in the title was to associate them with the block buster series.
Perhaps...but either way, M$ is smiling from ear to ear.
This just proves all the real Halo fans are playing the first game on their PCs.
