But regardless, it will be Halo 2 Anniversary vs "top PS4 exclusive of 2014".

Halo 2 anniversary is just a remake. Do you expect it to sell 2+ million? 


Halo CEA did, and that was just the Campaign and a Reach map pack code. Halo 2A with Campaign AND the ORIGINAL Multiplayer will definitely sell more than 2 million.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

It launched on a console with a 70 million userbase. But maybe you could be right about the Halo 2 remake.

You don't expect Xbox gamers to buy Halo 2 anniversary? That possibly has Halo 5 Beta access??

I dunno... I just don't think fans will pay $60 for a game they have already played.

You underestimate Halo fans. Hell some of them haven't even played Halo 2 because it was on OG Xbox.

People will definitely buy it. People bought Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition when the just played the same game in the last 9 months. People are going to be The Last of Us of PS4 when it comes and people will buy Halo 2. I'm sure Microsoft will add some perks to make it a worthwile buy. For example something like early beta access to Halo 5 like you said.

Round 1: killzone vs. ryse

Round 2: infamous vs. titanfall

Round 3:  ??

 

Sony contenders:  uncharted 4, driveclub, the order 1886, deep down, planetside 2, everquest next

MS contenders: the untitled halo, fable ledgends, quantum break, sunset overdrive, project spark, kinect sports rivals

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i'm feeling a showdown between the order 1886 and quantum break (assuming both release this holiday-ish).

the showdown is entirely with the fanboys, sure the companies get their advertising on but only to stir up the fanboys and drive sales.
