Last we reported, Halo 2 presales had reached a million—and some of our readers still weren't impressed, or just not convinced. Well, Microsoft has now confirmed that presales for this fall's most anticipated sequel have reached the 1.5 million mark! Translation: within its first 24 hours Halo 2 will bring in more sales than any blockbuster movie has in that same timeframe, ever. Period. November 9th, people. November 9.

Ever?
Never mind the fact that Dragon Quest VII had twice as many pre-orders in Japan.
Also never mind the fact that Halo sells for 4-5 times as much as a movie ticket goes for, so the sales figure comparisons are a bit dubious. Just more marketing spin from Microsoft.
