Anyways I'm kinda surprised at Halo Reach sales it's not holding up as well as I thought it would be I guess the franchise is losing steam after all. Seems like Halo ODST and Halo wars seemed to put a dent in the franchise.

lol... it just keeps coming doesnt it.  ("it" being nonsense speak regarding REACH)


Don't get me wrong I'm not saying it's selling bad it has sold really great so far. But I just thought it would have been the best selling game of the year and would have outsold COD Black OPS the 360 version only atleast.


why?


Well MS themselves said they expected Halo Reach to be the best selling game of 2010. As for me well looking how Halo 3 did a little more than 11 million for a game that was released in 2007. I thought Halo Reach would have done more seeing how the Install base is bigger I assumed it would be outselling it at a bigger and faster pace. Also I assumed Black Ops wouldn't have done better than Modern Warfare 2 seeing how it's made by treyarch I honestly expected Halo Reach to be the biggest game of 2010 as far as sales for a single platform.

It's still doing good it seems to have good legs and I do expect it to  outsell Halo 3 eventually. But I just thought it would sell sorta how blacks ops is doing right now. 


a quote would be good for the claim of ms saying that reach would outsell black ops

LOL @ the ppl LOLing at ps3 for being 120k behind.

Last year 360 was getting outsold by more than 200k and I didn't yous see LOLing at all in fact more sugar coating the 360 for being outsold.

Did the 360 have what was hyped to be a massive hardware mover and largest game on its console release but a week ago? I wouldn't think so.

Anyway, whilst I don't think people should be trolling any console anyway, it's VGC, whatcha gonna do, :D?

yup.

ODST was hype last year to be "TEH console mover" and ppl were still downplaying PS3 slim that it wont do much to move hardware.....

besides I remember ps3 sold like 1m in a week last year december because of ff13 where it outsold 360 by more than 200k and ppl were all "ohhh good 360 sales never the less"....I didn't see any loling.

EDIT* acutally it was more than 300k....

Err, not really. I may not have been here, but I can look at past posts. It wasn't nearly as hyped as GT5 (not that it should've been, anyway, GT5 should have and did move much more HW).

yup GT5 did move console but thats not my point my point is NOW ppl are loling @ ps3 for being 120k BEHIND 360 really?

Where were they when 360 got outsold by more than 300k? they were all "ohhh good 360 sales etc etc.."

Well, of course they are. They're 360 fans -- that's what they do. I can't be bothered to check, but I hope you won't try to tell me that PS3 fans weren't mocking 360 sales last year, :P.

That's how it goes. When PS3 does better, you lol at 360. When 360 does better, they lol at PS3.

No point complaining about it.
