Damn...that's a lot

not surprised figuring it had 1 million pre-orders....bad thing is its really not all that even tho its still fun hear and there

Definitely did not beat my expectations. Its just a bloated Halo 1 with better graphics, and online if you've never had the Mac/PC version. Better then Halo 2, but not as good as the first. That's my opinion.

I do wonder though how the next Halo will play out... It won't be called Halo 4 or anything to do with Halo but I think it would probably be even better. If they don't come out with a 4th(I'd assume it would be based on how Master Chief makes it back to earth), then it had a very crappy ending. Although the last level was good :)

what are the world wide sales figures? anybody know?

im part of that console sales spike =]
hope i dont RRoD that damn thing hehehehe

Micro$oft has become $$$$$$$$$.

wow... Hollywood has some competition now.

Halo 1 was terrible compared to the other two. First off, Halo 1 was all about power ups. Thats all. Physics were terrible, and it looked ugly as shit. Don't get me wrong, Halo 1 was fun and an amazing game...but come on, Halo 2 was definitely better. Halo 3 isn't quite what I wanted it, but it's what would please the masses.
I love reading other forums though, how bout you guys? Everyone dissin' Halo 3....well, uh...hmm...why did so many people buy it than? Yeah. ok

For me Halo 1 is still the best, it was fun, 2 was a rush job that needs finishing and 3 feels it was rushed and then sewn up for a quick end...

Halo is the star wars of FPSs roving mad fans but lil substance in the meat of it, still its a good game(H1-7,H2-6,H3-6,on PC add 1 point) that still retains some fun from 1.

This is really sad, halo is a joke and not much of a good skill FPS.although most retards that buy a 360 only for this game are... well retards. they can just wait for it too come out on pc

thats not fair to say people that buy a 360 for halo3 is a retard.maybe that was the game they were waiting on to make that move.since there is no killer apps on the ps3 at this time.some people wont wait for sony to get it going over there.

I would not call Halo 3 a killer app. In my opinion its still not better then Gears of War. If Gears had a longer storyline and better online play that game is the 360's killer app. I ended Halo 3 and was like ok is this all this game has to offer. I just look at it like this its not a bad game and is made better then majority of the games since the 360 has been out but its not a killer app its more hype then a killer. Just not what i thought it would be plus it still looks damn near the same as the last one with slightly more colors.

I was very disappointed as i play halo 2 8 hours a day. This Halo 3 SUCKED!!! Anyone who wants to buy it from me i only played it 3 nights. Brand new smoke free! Contact me. 50 bucks including shipping!!

So many people bought Halo 3 because of good advertising. M$ basically brainwashed my friends into buying it... although they like it but they only play online. I asked them and they say it didn't beat expectations but it's still ok. I asked some guys at my school and they basically agreed that it was nothing special, and it was a horrible way to end the story.

you got to be kidding me right halo3 is bigger than anything that will come out on the ps3 in a very long time and how did M$ brainwash someone in buying a game for crying out loud.so good marketing is a bad thing. i dont think so its just goodbetter than bussiness.no halo3 was not great at all but it was good enough.

Although i don't like Microsoft's Xbox system that is some impressive numbers so congrats have to go out. :) Well done :D
