It will happen towards the end of the year. Most people that will buy Halo 3: ODST will want Halo 3 also. So I can see Halo 3 doing a slight increase but Super Smash Bros. Brawl will surpass it. Damn casuals.lol

Probably around fall or so.

I just wish Brawl's online worked as it should! When I try to play with anyone it never finds other people!

Don't you think that the people who buy Wars and ODST would already be Halo fans with Halo 3 already?

I am pretty sure by the end of the Summer Brawl will pull ahead of Halo 3.

My predictions is that it will outsell Halo 3 by 10-25K units a week.

@metalmonstar

ummmm..no//Just like how Microsoft advertised the hell out of Halo 3 at launch. They will do the same exact thing with Halo 3: ODST.

Reason being//there will be deals or ads or special editions and stuff. It will encourage soon-to-be Halo fans to get Halo 3 and pick up Halo 3: ODST.

I would think that someone interested in a Halo Spinoff, would already be a Halo owner. I really see no noticeable boost from the Spinoffs. While Brawl on the other hand could recieve a boost from a large number of titles.

Kid gets sonic, wow sonic is fun (knows no better) Find out sonic is in brawl... whatever, it happens, not a ton but just saying.

@bigjon

The power of Microsoft's advertisement for this game will do something.

With Halo 3: ODST coming out next fall I'm wondering if that will significantly boost the sales of Halo 3. Could throw predictions off.

yup just bout any nintendo game could give smash a boost like kid icurus, kirby, zelda, pikman, and anything else nintendo game that has smash bros char in them.

Late summer at the latest.
