How many Xbox360 will Halo 3 sell?

[QUOTE="rdo"]

it will bw hard to pin down what percentage of sales are due to halo3 alone. there are other factors that will drive 360 sales at the same time. 50% of all retail sales happen in november and december. that wont affect the wii since it remains slod out. the wii will sell as many in those months as it does this month. selling 100% of production is all you can sell. the 360 will have a price cut or two by then. a real cut, not a clearence sale on an unwanted product wasting shelf space. when you get to the store this christmas you'll see the 360 with a price cut and halo3, and you'll see the dusty $600 ps3 with a "you just wait" sign.thats your choices. remember the core will probably as cheap as the wii so we know what the people that wanted the wii will get. halo3 will be on magazine covers, the internet, everywhere. is there any ps3 game that will get a midnight release like we know halo3 will? i dont think so. hype sells.

the 360 will sell 3-4 million in november and 6+ mill in december. that'll be 10 million. what part of that 10 million is due to halo i dont know. but those saying everybody that wants halo already has a 360 is like saing everybody that want god of war alreaddy has a ps3. if that's really the case sony might as well cancle the remaining ps3 model today and admit total failure.

Wait...you expect 10 million Xbox360 units to be sold in the last 6 months of this year? lol.

Seriosly though, the XBOX 360 will sell very well this holiday season with its recently annouced price drops and impending releases of Bioshock, Halo 3 and Mass Effect. But to totally discount the PS3 is silly. Lair, Warhawk, Uncharted:Drakes Fortune, Heavenly Sword and Ratchet and Clank give the PS3 a fairly formidable holiday line up. In the real world, I see the sales going like this from Sept-Dec 2007.....

Wii...6-8 million worldwide

360...4-6 million worldwide

PS3...3-4 million worldwide

Little to none, all the Halo fans got their 360.

Yeah, since there's already a Halo game on the 360. :|

That's why I bought 360 in the first place.

Far from the truth, the Halo-fans are still playing Halo 2 on the first Xbox

yes i'm a fan boy. we'll see who well my logic works out in a few months. the wii wont sell that many. nintendo has a production problem. maybe they were caugt off gaurd by the demand. what ever the reason they cant supply enough to meet demand. it remains sold out. while the 360 would have seen momthly sale jump 5X in the christmas shopping season nintendo wont see the sales jump. they cant sell more than they can make. if the could make more then yes they would sell more. the wii will sell about as many units in december as it does this month. you cant sell anymore after your are sold out. that is going to leave alot of people that wanted a wii the choice of the 360, the ps3, or nothing. i think they will go for the 360. the 360 will sell to everyone that wants a 360 or halo3, and to most of the people that want a wii.

1-3 million by the end of the year. If Gears can sell 2 million during the holiday season halo will at least sell 3 million.killaj2786

Yes, but Gears didn't sell 2 million Xbox360.

50% of the people that i played with on halo 2 on the xbox still have an xbox. alot of people are waiting for the game to buy a 360.That and a price drop

The 1st one was sound, the 2nd one was garbage and the 3rd one was decent.

Yes, but Gears didn't sell 2 million Xbox360.

ok...at least 1.5 million in the U.S. was sold between the release of gears and the end of the holiday season:
