Halo 3 online fucking rocks. Been having 3 to 4 hour sessions of Team Wat with two buds. There are still fuck loads of people on everyday, I think they average around 3 million matches a day. I will follow Bungie to the ends of the earth, or until their next project which will be announced on 7/7 most likely.

 

 Hell yes it does. Last night I jumped on around 10 and played till 2Est and the number of users was around 300,000, give or take of course. And thats on a tuesday. Love it or hate it Halo is one of the greatest franchises in gaming and it's here to stay.

i am expecting GT and FF to sell more then this game then being as any other one has outsold Halo in the previous generations

 

This generation is different than last generation in that Sony is weaker and MS is stronger than before.  So expect Sony's big games to sell less than they did under their domination.

Absolutely love this game. Multi-player is the Shizznitte. Great legs for a great title.

I still think that VGC is under-tracking H3....H3 had shipped out 8.3m+ copies months ago.

But at any rate, you can't complain about the legs of H3. Yes, it had an insane first week, but people keep buying it - despite COD4's insane sales. I would of never thought that the 360 would have 2 FPS games, released nearly side-by-side, and both sell for a combined 17m+ by the time everything is said and done. Amazing.

Having said that, COD4 > H3.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Awesome, but does anyone think that a motion controller similar to the Wiis two handed gun would be *FANTASTIC* for this game? I mean you can do Shooting, jumping, Melee and reloading with the motion controls and the feel of the gun in your hands with properly implemented rumble just makes me near orgasm with the thought of it.

It would be better than RE4 Wii, because the whole style of the game just suits motion controls so well! No offense to the Wii of course, its just that the game just screams motion control! :D

Lol, funny how the Halo 2 sales suddenly flatline. That seems a bit unrealistic, so I guess ioi just stopped tracking it.

 

 sales probably did pretty much die though once the xbox was canned.

they still sell some xbox games as "best of platinum hits"

Probably still sells a under a thousand a week.
