-Halo 2 broke records. $125 million dollars on it's first day. No game, movie, or album is not even close to that. It's very popular.

-Midnight launch! All over the country stores are doing this. There are only 1 or 2 other franchies that actually is big enough to have midnight launches.

-Great Story! Earth is on the edge of extinction from a superior alien race. Due to religious reasons they want to destroy us and believe we have no right to live. Scientist engineered super soliders to fight this threat. You play as Spartan 117 the Master Chief. You are the last of these Super Soldiers and are earths last hope to survive. Escaping an attack you warp into hyper space to luckily find the aliens (covenant) religious placed called a Halo. It's a big alien made planet that is actually a super weapon that can kill everything in the galaxy. It was built to stop an ancient known parasite called the "flood." The Forerunners are the names of these long lost ancient aliens who had this superb technology but vanished. It's beleived these Forerunners used the halo before to kill the flood but ended up killing themselves in the same shot. Some how the flood escaped. The covenant want to fire this halo believing it will bring them to the holy land. They don't realize that it destory's all life in the universe. It's up to master chief to stop this from happening and stop the flood from infecting the galaxy.

Thats the basis for halo and I can't wait to Finish the Fight with the master chief and 3 friends Next week.

Great Story> I beleive FF has way better stories than earth is once again on the brink of extincion.

Midnight Realease? Very popular? Mario has both if those too.

When it comes to hype, popularity, and sales I would have to agree. As to how good it is is subjective.

And, once again, we have a thread that refers to a game "winning" through sales when it's already been discussed in a stickied topic that sales mean nothing.

FF 1-13 are all different games from eachother...they have stupid spinoff games, and remakes of nes and snes games, but the real FF games are always good.
