Nope. Halo4 just has more dedicated fans. Black Ops will outsell it by 300% though. Even on 360 alone Black Ops 2 will outsell Halo 4 by a large margin.

I doubt that, Halo 4 could sell 30-40 million copies with the next gen visuals and new boot

[QUOTE="sts106mat"][QUOTE="ghost115z"][QUOTE="sts106mat"] COD = most played game on PSN too, so your point is what exactly?

that most 360 players don't care about halo 4

cod might be more popular, but the fact that halo reach is still in the top five most played games on xbox live, almost two years after release, kind of poops on the "nobody cares" argument.

not like theres anything else to play on xbox

And I could win a billion dollar in lottery tomorrow. Neither of those is likely to happen.

Except Trials Evo, Minecraft, The Witcher 2, Fez, Spelunky, Akai Katana, Sine Mora, Skyrim´s Dawnguard, and soon Deadlight, Dust Elysian Tail, Happy Wars, Forza Horizon, etc. Not to talk about all multiplats also available on PS3, like Mass Effect 3, Max Payne 3, and so on.

To be honest, those numbers are pretty impressive, considering the amount of options 360 owners have had latelly!

Halo 4 preorders are quickly outpacing Reach's preorders, and Blops 2 preordered are disappointing compared to MW3's. Halo 4 preorder sales are beating the COMBINED preorders of Blops 360+ps3.Is the oversaturation/fatigue of COD finally starting to kick in. IS COD only going downhill form here? I hope so! More statistics reach3

Halo Reach got more pre-orders than Halo 3 and had a bigger launch as well,but Halo Reach on the long run ran out of steam,and to this day has sold 2.5 million copies less than Halo 3,while COD games had been on the rise since COD 1,MW2 beat MW1 and COD5,Black ops beat MW2,and MW3 beat black ops.. You may talk crap about COD pre-orders combined with the PS3 ones,but black ops,and MW3 sold more units on PS3 than Halo Reach did on xbox 360.

plenty of exclusives on those lists, now lets see the the PS3 lists can we please?

i wonder how the HAZE online community is? or KZ2 / KZ3? I doubt those games will have the legs of halo 3, still in the top 20 a 5 year old game, that proves people do care about halo.

Even resistance 1 have people that play,hell yesterday i was playing Warhawk and tons of people still play it.

i guess you only play exlcusives then......i'll take the 360 library any day thanks.

Like how cows suddenly dont think older games dont exist, yet when they actually had no games they were like wait and see and tbh brutally honest outside Uncharted this gen what has Sony had thats been a total megaton hit critically and commercially.

In b4 GT5 it was a critical flop for the amount of hype and the wait.

[QUOTE="super600"]

So preorders are staying the same for cod while halo's increased?

reach3
No. Halo 4 on 360 alone is beating the combines preorders of blops 2 on ps3+360. Halo 4 preorders are on a huge rise, while blops 2's preorders are LESS than Modern Warfare 3. A first for COD. :)

That chart demonstrate that Halo 4 pre-roders will be own very hard.. Look at how the chart for Halo cover 4 points,and the one for Black ops 2 just 3 points,look how the chart comparing both Halo's stop at 1.6 millions,now look at how MW3 had 1.75 weeks before launch,and look how they rise hugely like by more than a million in just a few weeks more. Even the chart numbers to measure it are different,look how MW3 ones are bigger in numbers compare to the Halo one.

ok, but how many is "tons" so what, just proving that 360 gamers do care about halo.

But people do care about Halo,my point wasn't that they don't,my point was that other people care for PS3 games as well,Halo doesn't support 2000 vs 2000 matches no PS3 game either,so enough people to play some games is more than good.

Dude what do i care if Uncharted 3 sold 3 copies or 3 millions,i am not a damn sony share holder i am a gamer, and while you are stock with Halo a last gen series,this generation alone the PS3 has created several new IP,and people don't count Gears or the Witcher 2 those are not MS IP,they could next gen be on other consoles,like it has happen to many other games. Uncharted. LBP. Infamous. Resistance And several other are new series of this gen that you will not be on 360 next gen,and you know there are more way more that those,like the Last of Us...

funny, you'd have said the same thing about ace combat last gen, but 360 got an exclusive the PS3 did not AC6. the only ace combat game on PS3 (AC:AH) sucks balls. mass effect started on 360, turned into one of the biggest franchises this gen. bioshock, another day one on 360 (one year later on ps3). assassins creed, day one 360. Gears, complete trilogy only on 360, one of the best selling franchises again.PS infamous and resistance are unlikely to appear on any machine next gen so...sts106mat
The biggest franchise this gen is COD.. Mass effect is a multiplatform game see you just proved my point,you will not get Uncharted on 360,Mass effect since 2 is on PS3. Bioshock was a multiplatform game that MS payed to delay on PS3..lol Assassins Creed was release the same day on PS3 dude..lol And lol at how you use Gears apparently you can't read well Gears is not a MS IP is an Epic IP,better hope they can reach a good deal with Epic next gen,else Gears will land on PS4. Infamous or Resistance been or not on the next PS console i nothing change the fact that they are exclusives,so you count IP which are not MS and want to ignore the ones that actually are IP from Sony..lol

I think CoD is finally going to slow down. MW3 left a bad taste in everybody's mouth and the competition from EA's FPSs like BF3 and Medal of Honor has greatly increased.

This year they have to contend against Halo 4, Far Cry 3, Crysis 3, and Medal of Honor Warfighter as well as continued support for Battlefield 3 and new F2P FPSs like Firefall and Planetside 2.

The market is beign saturated with some fantastic FPSs. CoD will always be the go-to for a lot of gamers, but people do tire of the same thing after awhile. MW3 was a giant kick in the balls to a lot of the really dedicated CoD fanbase too.

Halo Wars = RTS

Halo CE Remake = blatently for the fans. (343 even said they made it JUST for the fans of Halo CE, weren't even bothering trying to sell it to non fans)

Halo 3, Halo 3 ODST, and Halo Reach are the only Halo games this gen worth getting excited about if you aren't a real big Halo fan. Each of them had a lot of vast differences in the gameplay from the last one. They all included very different settings, different characters, different gameplay mechanics, and tons of different features pre game.

The differences between CoDs have been far less, especially in the terms of gameplay. The gameplay is almost 100% identical every revision. This is because the fans expect that, not because the developers are lazy. However fans are getting a little tired of the same old crap. A lot of people were really disappointed with MW3.

Yes Halo wars is an RTS but is a Halo game non the less,Halo ODST is a First person halo game,and was $60 dollars,i now Halo 3 and Halo reach were the only ones that people should have get,but that did not stop Halo fans from buying the others,and then there is the remake,

No i actually told him my opinion. Halo Wars is a Halo game,or is it a Mario one.? Halo ODST was a $60 dollars FPS,it was a Halo spin off but Halo non the less. Halo 3,Halo Reach,Halo 4,Halo 1 remake.. Man those are Halo games all of them and all of them on 360,you can deny it all you want it doesn't change the fact they are.
