The running consensus is at more than 7 million, which is signifigantly less than 10 million, so I agree, but this is because Halo Reach is on the horizon, and if that is a team-based Halo...players will FLOOD to that.  I think that game is going to be the one to set new heights!

Ok

First Week 1.8M - 2.2M

LTD : 4M

If reach does hit next year don't see it reaching anywhere over 5M

4 million first week? Higher than Halo 3? No way.

First week: 2.5-3 million
LT: 6.5-7 million.

It'll be the best selling expansion of all time

1.8 million boomsticks?

about 7.5 mil ltd

Xbox 360 totals on Halo 3's launch was 12 million...and the game sold 3.8 million in week 1...and has gone on to sell 10 million copies.  Now, the install base has diversified, but I fully expect 15-20% of 360 owners are going to be interested in a Halo FPS...not only that...Halo War...a console RTS game...sold over 600K in launch week.

So we have

Halo - 6.43

Halo 2 - 8.43

Halo 3 - 10

Halo ODST - possibily lower than Halo....huh?

Sorry, but I'm not following the logic of some, unless they haven't even bother to review the data. 

1.3 million first week US

2 Million WW First week

5 Million LTD

15mil day one.
60mil ltd.

This.

Aren't you worried you're being too cautious?
