[QUOTE="Led_poison"]amazon.com does not represent the whole worldWilliamRLBakeras the largest online retailer...yeah it kind of does. or atleast gives us a pretty damn good representation of the buying habits.
Yeah, but this dosent help the NPD "My console sold more then yours this month" in any way because NPD dosent cover online stuff. So if this thing sells like a million units, itll be ahrd to din out because as far as I know Online sales are kinda hard to track. Im sure MS will make a big boast if it does though.

lol, no its not. I think a certain Italian Plumber would like to have a word with you. Hell, I think Metal gear Solid is a bigger name, but thats like, you know, my opinon man.

I've never said that. I still maintain that you stamp "HALO" on a box with a turd inside it and the fanbase will not only buy millions of copies, they will praise it as the single best box of turd ever.
Rest assured lemmings, Halo fever is still insanely rampant. Let's not try and rewrite history (and factual/sales evidence) to act like Reach is somehow the second coming and resurection of Halo PROVING it is the saviour of videogames.

what nonsense are you talking, tone it down lol.
who knows why hes mad...likely cause it will end up getting Goty this year.Right now im gunning for ME 2 for that spot. But hey, Halo Reach could get it for all we know.
[QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"][QUOTE="Led_poison"]amazon.com does not represent the whole worldIndie_Hitmanas the largest online retailer...yeah it kind of does. or atleast gives us a pretty damn good representation of the buying habits. You'd have to look at every amazon site to establish that and even then, it's not neccessarily the largest retailer for video games. simply put its a fact amazon is the largest online retailer, that includes game retailer, book retailer, and movie retailer. thats what you get when your a cross genre and media retailer and you become #1.
[QUOTE="Zoso-8"]It's a good deal, but idiots would buy a toilet seat if it had the name Halo on it.h575309I think Cows would love a product like that :P
I dont eprsonaly care because I have both, but im not sure why people assume certain console owners would want a certain game on their console that on the other console.
I'm liking the design on that. Very tempting to upgrade my 360...but it comes out around the same time as classes so nope. :P

Actually, it just "might" be. This is all very subjective though, and people's reaction may change over a period of time. But have a look at this--

that same list has Guitar Hero rated higher than Mario :|
'nuff said right there
I only posted that link to show that Halo is right UP there with the best of the best, as far as franchise popularity is concerned. I'm not saying it's "definitely" the biggest, but it is in the same ballpark as the Marios and Zeldas. Oh, although I've never played a single GH game, but I have no qualms in denying that it's HUGE.
Don't confuse "biggest" with "best". It's more to do with popularity and public awareness.
EDIT: Whoa, you just edited out your very first lines. I shall remove my retort too :)..peace
Someone should photoshop the new 360 S design with the copper and green colors of the Halo 3 360. I actually liked the way that 360 looked (the color scheme would probably work even better on the new 360 since the grayish-black color of the HDD on the old 360's isn't on the new 360 S). I'm not really digging the color on this one though. Maybe if it was plain white instead of silver (reminds me of the glittery silve electronics from the late '90s and early '00s). On the plus side, it makes the black 360 S look good, which makes me want to buy one even more lol.
