Sounds like Eve Online.

From Wikipedia:

"On March 15, 2009, Eve Online achieved a new record for the maximum number of simultaneous pilots online with 53,850 concurrent accounts logged on to the same server."

I don't imagine MS will have too much trouble beating a little-known Icelandic developer.

A halo game where you either join the covenant or the Earth resistance. And there are over 1000 battlefields on the map where each battle you win along the border increases the amount of territory your side controls.
Or it could be even more cool if it was all open world and vehicles have a larger part in the game. And each conquered area would automatically build defenses overtime.

5 scarabs against 50 scorpions would be a pretty good battle from eye level.

As I said in my thread, which was created first btw, this is most likely going to be the backend for all Primetime games. Money is on the line and the beta for the Canadian 1 vs 100 already hit 18000 at one time, so we can assume that if there are multiple different game types, this 300,000 limit will be necessary.
