 according to this, it has been confirmed, with the information coming from a number of retailers. If this is true, it has already demolished everything else and will pound every ps3 game in sales, as well as halo 2's record selling 24 hours into the ground.

it doesnt matter how old something is, there will always be people who havent heard of it. So, if its old and you dont like to hear it again, dont enter the thread. You know that mouse thats under your hand? If you dont hover over the thread title and you dont click the left button, you wont come to see old stuff.

Halo 3 will go down as the biggest game this gen.

 

GTA has lost its touch, FF doesnt have the hardcore followers.  SSB stops with the casuals.  

 

Halo 3 will be pushed harder than any game in history, no telling how much MS will spend in advertising.

You don't have to use the left button, you could actually use the right button too (though it would add a few steps).  PWN'D ;)

And you could have did a quick search or did a simple click to the 2nd page of this forum to find a huge thread on the subject before blindly posting the same info.

North America pre-orders.  Not worldwide pre-orders.

That means that most of the old xbox owners migrated to the xbox 360 already.

That was so fanboyish, it made me sick to my stomach.

Did you forget about Japan and Europe? Durrrrrr....!

Knock Knock, not everyone likes Halo, especially outside the US. Get over yourself.

Because you can't preorder a game for a system you don't own yet?

It means the guy is trying to say that there are 12 million 360 owners which would be a 33% attach rate which is really high.  However its just NA presale and there are only 5-7 million 360s in NA so that puts the attach rate at at least 66% which is amazing. 

The posters attempt at flaiming fails because he doesn't know how to read.
