Could halo 3 Be The Biggest Video Game Ever Launched?

It notes how Halo 3 has 4 million pre-orders, has enourmous hype, will the hype ruin it, what do most people think of Halo 3, and takes estimates on how much it will sell in it’s total lifetime.

Halo 3 will have the largest launch, or one of the largest launches in Video Game history.

Yeah, more Halo 3 pre-orders then there are PS3’s..

Hopefully the new 400$ PS3 will raise sells.

Well if you do the math
Include Xbox Live, Action Figures, Books, The Game’s, etc.
The Halo Franchise had made over 1 Billion Dollars and its going to be even more due to the fact half the people are probably getting the legendary edition.

At Least I’m getting the Legendary Edition, because its the last of halo so it will probably be a once in a life time opportunity to get it.

halo 3 has not passed 4 million preorders. the numbers in that article were not confirmed my Microsoft.
Halo 3 preorders top 1M

this article was posted in August. now, there’s probably 2 million preorders in NA, but i don’t think that there are another 2 million preorders in Europe and Japan.
