	According to CVG, Halo 3 is the second fastest selling game ever in the UK. The Bungie shooter came in second only to GTA: San Andreas, but when GTA: SA was released, the PS2 had an installed base of 4 million plus. Xbox360 is only at the 1.5 million or so mark. >Link

"the PS2 had an installed base of million plus. Xbox360 is only at the 1.5 million or so mark.."

Care proof reading your sentences before posting?

1.5 million is a million plus indeed.

Anyway still an impressive record.

Way to go Master Chief!! GTA FTL!!

Halo 3 truly does have an amazingly high Attach Ratio to the number of Xbox 360 systems that have been sold!

@ Krogan.

Last i read on DIGG the xbox 360 sold 100,000 units this week alone thanks to the Halo 3 Juggernaut. The Wii in 2nd place with 90,000. PS3 holding up the rear with a mere 30,000.

i wonder how many of those discs sold were scratched. probably a high percentage. just like the 360 has a high percentage of rrod.

I wonder what Sticky gets paid to spread FUD around about the 360??? I guess these sales figures proves that Halo 3 is a system seller.

I'm glad I exchanged my Blu-Ray player for a 360. Now I have a real HD videogame console again.

My co worker, was a PS2 fan, and is ready to step into next gen. He wanted a Blu-ray player 3. But said it was too expensive.. then he turns around and buys an Xbox Elite.. I don't get his logic.. but ok.. I gained another person on Live to challenge and talk trash to..

Halo 3 was a little over hyped.. but the multiplayer makes up for it big time.

@Sticky that was uncalled for.. 640p is still considered HD(standard)... ok so what was the point of your post again? I'm guessing nothing.. just to talk Sh!t.. if you're looking for someone to talk Sh!t too.. I'm here.. this is me sending a invitation..

One thing though I agree Halo 3 is over hyped as far as the storyline goes it has a wierd ending. But everything else.. that involves playing with a buddy makes up for it... I think thats what Hyped it up more is the 4 player -co-op..

sticky: You can say what you want about my wife. You could only hope to be so lucky as to find someone like her. Sounds like you need it, especially after all those one on one fights with the one-eyed champ you have been having. Judging by your name though it seems that you are usually the winner. I wonder if you paint faces on your hand? Like Fist-ina Aguilera, or maybe Palm-ela Anderson. Heck you can have a 3-some if you paint both hands at the same time. Or you can sit on one of you hands till its numb and have a "Stranger".

I know it has to be "hard" or in your case soft when the only "joystick" that sees any action in your house is that 6-axis controller.

they explain the unorthodox methods for resolution with halo 3. check out bungie.net to be enlightened.

i think the game looks great. there's always going to be a hater who nitpicks at non-stories and those who have to tear down the big things like halo.

sticky that aint cool leave his family outta this

B1ue and Cian: Hey its cool. I was already warned about the personal insults along with another member. So I am trying to honor the rules of this site.

Sticky is just another laptop warrior who thinks he is tough because he can use unedited cuss words and names on the internet. Besides I have personally insulted other people on this site in the past so what goes around comes around. Anyways in real life if this guy actually was anywhere within my reach and said that about my wife he would still be picking his teeth up from the ground. I can roll with his weak little jabs, I just wish Flame Wars was still around so I could hit him with the one hitter quitter. Obviously this guy gets off on trolling these message boards with his pro-ps3 anti-360 propoganda. So we know he has an agenda. I really do worry about him so I will keep him in my prayers.

On Subject: I wonder if Halo 3 has sold over 5 million games worldwide yet??? I read on VGChartz that it had sold almost 4 million worldwide in 4 days. Thats more than all of Sonys First Party games total worldwide sales to date put together. Thats impressive...

no bothers pimp

and yeah its pretty impressive for a game

4million units sold @ $60 mucks each you guys do the math

microsoft will be payin off tat half billion the owe to the euro court of trade fairly quickly

that 640p title looks better than any 1080p title on the paystation 3

720p is when hd starts, not 640p.</br></br>Three HDTV standards are currently defined by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-R BT.709). They include 1080i (1,080 actively interlaced lines), 1080p (1,080 progressively scanned lines), and 720p (720 progressively scanned lines). All standards use a 16:9 aspect ratio, leading many consumers to the incorrect conclusion of equating widescreen television with HDTV. All current HDTV broadcasting standards are encompassed within the ATSC and DVB specifications

sticky: Like I said it doesnt bother me what you say. Your hiding behind a keyboard and mouse. Some people on this site actually know what I look like, what I do for a living, and how easy it would be for me to inflict real harm to somebody like you. But this is the internet so fire away knowing your out of harms way. Your right I do give it as well as I get it, but the difference is guys like you take it personal, somebody like me just rolls with the punches. As the saying goes. Sticks and Stones. I have to wonder if this is all you got. Because I'm not impressed. I would love to blast you on this forum and show you how to really insult somebody but I already got warned about the personal insults. So you keep spreading your Viral marketing against the 360, keep violating the forum rules, keep using cuss words like the Eminem wannabe you are, while the rest of us debate videogames. Like I said I will keep you in my prayers.
