Halo Reach has six weeks to go and its pre-orders are outpacing MW2. When MW2 was at six weeks left, it had around 875k pre-orders on the 360.

So, can halo reach beat modern warfare 2 on 360?

UPDATE Now it's over 1mil

i personally cant wait for MW2 to die and halo reach is our best assassin at this point

Well what else is gonna beat out MW2 then the thing that made the Xbox valid?

 

[vento 231]

I hope it does. This looks to be one of the best Halos, and Halo and COD have been in a war for a while now.

Note: VGChartz are nortoriously unreliable. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if Halo Reach was outpacing MW2. What about Black Ops?

 

[L4hlborg]

I hope that something kills MW2 fast. Its the evil dictator that must be slain so people don't have to live under the rule of its horrible spawn system and unbalanced weapons. Though I doubt that Reach's Armor lock will help at the balance department.

Seriously though, someone needs to kill MW2's rule fast. Otherwise it will only encourage Activision to release another bad sequel for easy cash.

 

[Funkiest Monkey]

Oh god I hope it does.

 

[TPiddy]

It could, but then Black Ops will come out and CoD will win again. It's just a simple fact that gamers as a whole, are blithering idiots

sadly bad company 2 took te job and killed it, since mr. halo got a bit giddy at the beta party. kindly BC2 left some more MW2 on the 360 for mr. halo to finish off

Indeed. It will be nice to hear people babbling about Halo instead of "Dude, how many nukes did you get?" or "What prestige are you?". They'll be fascinated with something good instead of a half broken money hole.

Knowing the Halo fanbase, most likely it will. I am curious about this game myself even after the dissapointment that was Halo 3 for me.

 

[FlashHero]

Is it alright if i just wanna play campaign..cuz your all talking about the Muti-player which i don't care about(Forge is cool though)

 

[TelHybrid]

Meh, who cares? As long as the Call of Duty 4 PC fanbase doesn't die out I'm happy.

Neither of those 2 games will be able to beat CoD4 PC version in quality.

 

[Sassafrass]

Yep, it probably will do.
Then it will become the new thing to hate around here for about 6 months. But from what I've seen of it, it looks to be heading back towards Halo: CE. Health packs and the health bar are both back, the Elites are piss your pants scary and the MP looks good fun.

A technical question, are the MW2 pre orders being counted for all platforms or just Xbox 360? Since Reach is 360 Exclusive and MW2 isn't...it would make things a bit starker in comparison.

I'll probably never play it myself but I hope it dislodges some customers from Activision.

 

[Woodsey]

Who cares?

Let's all pre-order and play Mafia 2 instead!

My thoughts precisely.

Besides, didn't MW2 sell like 11 million copies?

i really hope it does, although i havent pre ordered , better get some money quick!
