Forums - Microsoft - We'll get our first taste of Halo 3/Fable 2 bundling sales this week.

It will only be based on two or three days reporting as the bundle deal with the Xbox 360 Elite only began on the 1st of May.  But it will nonetheless be interesting to see what, if any, boost these titles get.

Any predictions?  We really dont have any accurate estimations of what percentage of console sales are Elites, but I have heard as low as 5-10%.  So it's possible not much of anything will happen.

Still, two amazing games that will deserve any extra sales they get.

Still... A regular 10k boost to the two titles should see Fable 2 well on the road to the 3.5M+ sales it deserves and it should help Halo 3 touch 11M sooner rather than later. The real question is, how long will the bundle last? If its all year then it should be quite a reasonable boost.

Also the bundle should help improve the Elites sales, so that should be factored in as well.



Tease.

the halo boost will be even more when odst comes out its kinda scary that that game can do so well for so long

If this bundle goes up too and through the next holiday period, the sales of these two games are really going to start obliterating expectations.

I had Halo 3 matching Halo 2 originally (yeah, my bad). And from memory I had Fable 2 at 2.5-3.5 MAX!!!!

Interesting too see how high Fable 2 goes.

I remember the great shame you brough to we Xbox 360 fans with that Fable 2 prediction. Your contrition should be to catalogue every known source of Fable 2 in the one thread so everyone knows where to buy a copy.

@Goddog: Yeah, thats insane! I would suspect that Microsoft will sell both Halo FPS's and maybe even the Halo Wars game in the one package, which should severely increase their numbers. 12M+ is looking more and more likely every time we get news like this.

 



Tease.
