ttsutaoka Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Two huge games. Which one will do better? Obviously, Modern Warfare 2 is already out, but do you think Bungie's latest and last game will top Infinity Ward's in sales (sales meaning revenue and copies sold)?

ReverendSID Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Well MW2 is on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, so no it won't top that. If we are just talking about the 360 sales then yes Reach will do better. My thought exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmona Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 yeah Reach is a 360 exclusive so i don't think so...but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LickableLemons7 Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Everyone's pretty much sayin the same thing and agreeing with each other here, so I'll just agree with everyone else. Yup. Uh-huh. Ya. Ok. Looks like that's all I've got to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC B0B x360a Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I dont see how it can happen and i will be totally surprised. I think the better comparison will be how reach does against Black Ops. These games are being released right around each other and will be in competition. When mw2 was released it was by far the biggest release at the time. I could see halo beating black ops sales but i dont know about mw2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And again I'll say, only if you limit the comparison to the Xbox 360 version of Black Ops. Comparing sales of an exclusive game to a non-exclusive game is always going to be skewed in the non-exclusive's favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Juicy Pie Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Justin Bieber has Reach, so now every 14 year old girl is going to go out and buy it now too, so there may be a chance of it outselling MW2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x Rex Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I know HALO REACH will sell more than modern warfare 2 on a single console(such as the 360) halo 3 sold more than modern warfare 2 on the xbox 360 so i dont see why it wont sell more than mw2 on a single platform Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reylaw720 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) I dont believe it will pass MW2 sales. Edited September 13, 2010 by reylaw720 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robobeast76 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 http://www.vgchartz.com/milestones.php?reg=World&cons=&milestone=10 MW 2 lifetime 360 11.5m H3 lifetime 11.15m (and that's after 3 years) There is a higher install base for hardware now but it can't account for the juggernaut that is COD. Don't agree that ODST should be added into here but it sold around 5.5m also. I'm passionate for all things Halo and not COD but I think the gaming community has shifted to COD.

Dz06lt Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 obviously it wont top total sales, i dont even think it will top 360 sales. But what about black ops any ideas how they will compare? I have heard that black ops preorders have outpaced MW2's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttsutaoka Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 I honestly think that Halo Reach can top all of MW2's sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what about black ops any ideas how they will compare? I have heard that black ops preorders have outpaced MW2's Well, if Black Ops pre-orders have topped MW2's already, and if the pre-orders are any kind of actual indication of total sales (which they probably aren't) then Reach WILL outsell Black Ops. Cause as of two weeks ago Reach had over double the reserves of Black Ops across BOTH consoles. http://www.vgchartz.com/preorders.php Doesn't seem to have been updated since the 4th though. But, if all of those reserved copies are actually picked up on the 14th... that's a hell of a first day number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixo Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I'm almost positive Reach will get more sales then MW2 if we're just talking about the 360. There's no way it's getting more total sales though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starstrukk X360A Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I honestly doubt it. People went apeshit over Modern Warfare 2 when it came out. I haven't seen as much excitement towards Reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xerofox Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Short answer, No Long Answer, They Wish Longer Answer, most people are fed up with Halo after ODST. The Hype around Halo isn't as big as any COD game and I do think Bungie lost their mojo after Halo 2. Most people who are into Halo are buying Reach and it seemed like everyone was buying MW2 because of the solid SP and MP. These are also the reasons why I didn't preorder a legendary edition of Halo: Reach because I know I'll see cheaper versions of this edition in about 6 months just like the Halo 3 Legendary edition.

Bebe Buell Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 No, because MW2 is multiplatform. But on 360 only on the other hand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double2Seven Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I love both games. But it will be very hard for halo to top MW2, the latter sold more than 13 milion copies just for the x360. Halo as its bigger community in the Usa, but in Europe most gamers play Cod, everyone criticises COD MW2 but it as stayed in the top of XBOX LIVE and PSN since launch, and the Cod brand (Cod waw / Cod 4 / Cod mw2) is in the top ten most played xbox360 games every month, and with Black Ops there will be 4 cod games in that list...thats amazing.
