Forums - Sales Discussion - Halo 3 ODST over or under 3.1 million for september NPD

Under because of MW2.  I believe most are waiting for MW2.

Halo 3:ODST: I will say 2 million for september NPD. Halo 3:ODST ltd sales of around 4 to 5 million tops. It is a spin off game and not a continuation of the Halo main story.

Just because it's not a numbered sequel doesn't mean it's not part of the main story of Halo.

@topic: I think it will do well, but not quite 3 million first month.  Maybe 2, with a lifetime of 5 or 6.

It launches at the end of September so I don't think so. It launches the 27th I believe. It would have to sell more than Halo 3 over the first few days.

Nope, September 22nd, giving its first week 4 days and its next week also 4 days. So it has 8 days worth of sales in September NPD.


Not really, last year it ended Oct 4th and the year before that it ended Oct 6

I don't think NPD crosses over months ....

 

 


It does, just look at last month, it went from May 31 - July 4

Under, but it would be awesome if it was over.

Halo 3 sold almost 4 million worldwide in September, and it only had a week to do that. I don't think ODST will have the hype to push it that far, but we'll see.

Less hype - true.

But when Halo 3 launched, there were about 12 million 360's sold.  Now there are 31 million and counting.  There are a LOT more potential customers.



Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?

Since were talking about NPD, there were around 7 million 360's sold in the US when Halo 3 came out and around 17 million now.

2 million at the most.

Under. It's not going to be as big as Halo 3.

Halo 3 didn't much over 3 million in two weeks, and I don't expect this to match that.

Under, but only slightly.

Halo 3 sold 4.6 million in 2 weeks.
