it was bound to happen, look at Reach's pre-orders, during this time of the year it bounces up and down a little, nothing to worry about.

Considering last preorder week was right after e3 week, i think, it was bound to happen. Hopefully it will pick up once advertising begins.

Why Halo 3? Didn't Halo Reach have bigger marketing?

In terms of cost yes Reach was reported to be bigger, in terms of coverage they seem about equal

When? Is say it started back when Halo 1 released and its been gradually becoming more popular with every releas.e. But if you want a specific data, is say Halo 3's release. Why? My instincts tell me because its a high quality, accessible, and hugely marketed IP.
