No offense to Gamepro, but didn't we already know basically all of this stuff from previously hinted interviews and videos?

I mean, we've all certainly seen the pictures of the dual Spike Rifles. And the info on the upgraded BR and Needler are nothing new.

But before I go any further, I should most likely read the article, and not just joystiq's synopsis, lest I end up with my foot in my mouth.

I have this funny feeling that this game is going to kick serious ass. I'm not even that big of a Halo fan, though when Halo1 dropped I thought it was pretty awesome.

You mean 3rd.

And I correct myself, I enjoyed this interview, and Bungie's willingness to not be quite so air-tight for once. Good work.

Especially the part about the needler still causing "assplosions".

I guess this proves that Halo is for the kiddies.

For this game to outsell Halo 2, 80% of 360 owners will need to buy it. That's a higher attach ratio than even Twilight Princess. I wonder if they can pull it off, and if so, how long it will take. If they can do it, it would be the first game to break GoldenEye's best-selling FPS record (later tied by both Half-Life 1 and Halo 2, but never surpassed).

I love when you know about something and no one else knows. This is one of those cases! I'm not telling what I know either =D

@ 6

That's not entirely true. All things being the same, that would be true. But the fact of the matter is this game will most definitely be a system seller if ever there was one. People will pick up the 360 just for this game.

I think it'll do it. I've just been surprised before, with games like Half-Life 1 and Halo 2. For GoldenEye to hold the record for 10 years is ridiculous, especially with how big shooters are these days. It's about time it passed the torch.

Halo 3 will exceed the sales of Halo 2 and it will hav a huge impact on the Xbox 360 fanbase. Halo isn't just a game, its a cultural phenomenon. And Master Chief is wayyy cooler than Mario ever was.

See, i disagree

Halo 2 dropped at the right time, a great game later in the console's life, the userbase was there and you could get that level of sales

certainly it shall be a system seller, but there are barely 10 million 360s sold (although the number shipped sits at 11.5 or so)

I'd say it'll hit 5 million by the end of the holiday season, with Brawl (if it appears) being a close second to that

Something tells me that GTAIV's sales are going to dissappoint when compared to those of Vice City and San Andreas...

Halo 2 was the best-selling game on the XBox. Smash Bros. Melee was the best-selling game on the GameCube. Both of their sequels are coming out this Christmas. IT'S ON! Also, the Wii should reach 10 million by Christmas, so it's SUPER ON! And Halo 3 doesn't have Solid Snake and most likely Sonic. I think San Andreas was the best-selling game on the PS2, so this Christmas is just nuts.

It would be really smart of Bungie and LEGO to make a Lego Halo game.

I'd buy it.

San Andreas wasn't the best selling PS2 game, that title was Gran Turismo 3 A Spec
