Halo: Reach to be biggest game of 2010 “across all platforms”, says MS

Halo: Reach will be the biggest game of the year “across all platforms”.

That’s according to Director of Marketing at Xbox UK, Stephen McGill.

“Our hope for Halo: Reach is to be the biggest title of 2010 not only for Xbox, but across all platforms – a forecast which has been mirrored by industry professionals,” he said.

“Halo: Reach takes the legacy of Halo’s rich multiplayer gameplay to an entirely new level, delivering experiences that we think old and new players alike will enjoy for years to come.”

He further added that the company was “thrilled” from the response the trailer shown at the VGAs got.

“It’s an exciting time for Halo fans and we’re thrilled by the response from trailer shown at the VGAs last month which was phenomenal.”

Halo: Reach will launch in the fall.

The game will appear in the next issues of Edge and Game Informer.

Earlier this week, scans from the GI main feature leaked onto the internet, which introduced us to Noble Team: our main set of characters in the game.

Thanks, CVG

Is this the same forecast by industry proffesionals that had no wii games & GOW3/Bioshck 2 agead of GT5?

It could very well be the highest single platform game, but if we combine COD (whatevers) numbers that will be higher

All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

If Halo Wars could sell 600,000 week one and ODST over 2,000,000 day 1 I can't imagine how much this will sell....

The game will be huge and I anticipate it to be a tremendous success. One of (my) most anticipated games this year.

Biggest across all platforms.........not sure.

This year is packed with quality titles across every platform. Reach has the potential (and will be the biggest on 360). But we will have to wait and see what the title brings to the table. I am confident that MS will put there amazing marketing behind Reach in full force.

I'm pretty sure MW2 is going fuck Halo 3's sales in the ass, but I see Reach outselling the 360 version of MW2's first week, perhaps 5.30 million. The only thing I see giving Halo trouble is CoD, I'm 100% positive GT5 will not reach the other games' amount of sales.
