What's the highest selling game on the 360?

@psrock

Of course Halo 3//JaggedSac presented the info for you.

dude, that was my point anyway.

@psrock

kk, so then who was you trying to get this point across to? Clearly everyone knows in this thread other than outlawauron.

Yes and possibly no.  Halo will most certainly outperform COD on week 1 sales because first week is when the loyal fanbase will buy the game.  Much like Halo 2 and 3, there will be many adopters solely because of the name of the product.  I don't expect the halo 3 prologue to be as popular as the full game so it is entirely possible for Halo 3: ODST and COD: MW2(xbox 360 only) to perform nearly identical on charts.  It really could go either way but when you go by gameplay value I think COD: MW2 will have a better appeal to a larger group of players.  So my prediction:

Week 1 sales:

-Halo 3: ODST outperforms COD: MW2 (Including all platform sales)

Week 2 sales:

-Halo 3 ODST performs equally to COD: MW2 (all platform sales)

-Halo 3 ODST outperforms COD: MW2 (360 sales only

Week 3-5 sales:

-Halo 3: ODST performs identically to COD: MW2 (360 only sales)

- Across all platforms COD:MW2 outperforms Halo 3: ODST from here on out

Week 6 and beyond:

-COD MW2 (xbox 360 only sales) will outperform Halo 3: ODST from here on out.

*Assuming all things constant (i.e. bundled sales possibly, add-on content release, special edition release, selling price, anything that could abnormally skew sales)

there were more than one person arguing COD  is bigger than Halo.

Given that ODST will have a rather low initial price, the game could be huge - particularly given that you do not need Halo 3 to play the game. There's no reason why it wouldn't be as big as CoD - if not bigger.

The argument about CoD being bigger than Halo 3 is irrelevant to this topic, primarily because very few people can afford to have both a PS3 and a 360. The sales of a PS3 game are therefore almost entirely indepedent of the sales of a 360 game.

@psrock

It's bigger because of it being on multiplatform but its not bigger being a exclusive as Halo 3 is on the Xbox 360.

But I know it wasn't you that was arguing about the situation. It just needs to be clear that Halo 3: ODST will outperform the Xbox 360 version of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2.

i doubt it, it's not a full game
