BAM!

Instant crow.

LOCK!

lol haha this thread is SO OLD but it was funny that it popped up under the main discussions haha its 5/18/09

I posted this in the Halo 3 pages because I didn't want people to bump this. Now you're going to get it locked.

Lol.

2007 was a funny year. This thread is almost as good as the one where half the posters said the PS3 wouldn't cross 10 million sold.

I hope this doesn't get locked, because now we can actually make predictions based on sales data.

Current trends suggest that Halo 3 will eventually win out unless it ends up falling off sharply at some point and SSBB keeps its legs for a long, long time.

C'mon Montanta... you've been a mod, you should know better.

Anyways, why should this be locked? Considering the subject, revisiting the thread from time to time isn't exactly off-topic...

I recall an argument I was involved in on Brawl's wall...

@MontanaHatchet:

Again, it depends on what we are going to call legs. Let's take these two games. You claim both have strong legs, but one is about to overtake another due to legs. With this in mind, it may be questionable to say Halo 3 has great legs. If it did, why is it slowing so much? Why is Smash Brothers about to overtake it? The titles we attribute to legs have stayed on the charts for 40, 60, even 100 weeks. 35 is a little weak in comparison. Brawl has legs because it is staying in the charts. Halo 3 struggled to keep head above water.

Titles with legs make their sale in long term, not short term. Brawl has stayed strong and has stayed longer. Halo 3 came with a strong burst and tried to keep up. In this sense, I would say Brawl had(has) legs and Halo 3 did not. Truthfully, I would definably not say Halo 3 had great legs. It really didn't.
