If it is well marketed and advertised, then people will buy it. Sure it's a simple minded and unoriginal... so what. I love RPG's personally, but every RPG is "find this magic weapon to defeat so-and-so". Sure I wish games were more intelligent and better made, but hey... most people are not. Most people and most kids these days fit right in to the simple plot and shoot-anything-that-moves mentality of Halo. And I for one am guilty of enjoying it.

It isn't the "important milestone for Xbox 360 and for video games as entertainment and as an art form” that Microsoft says it is, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Congrats, Bungie. Now make a different game. Good game, not great though.

Just like 2, people run through bullets, I guess because of having a shield. Im more of a bf2, real to life style shooter. I still see nothing great about this game.

I knew it would do well this week but 300 mill surpassed even my estimates. I figured they would do about 250-275 million. It really makes me laugh at how Rein likes to brag about Gears having sold 3 million copies in 10 weeks. Hell, Halo 3 is going to shatter that record big time ... it is already projected to have sold some 2.4 million copies so by the end of this week that 3 million mark should be shattered and it will only have taken two weeks.
