Default xbox 360 release
if xbox 360 was released with halo 3 as its debut game, do u think the sales would be a lot greater at the beginning, regardless of the sale price of the xbox360, which is supposed to be 300 us i think? correct me if im wrong

Yeah...I think they should have saved Halo 2 for it, actually; highly unlikely that a 3rd will be ready for the 360 launch.

one of the supposed XBOX360 bundles will be launching with Halo 2.5. Its basically Halo 2 with bug fixes, 1280*720 resolution, and higher resolution textures

Ya, probably. But not that significant (still costs alot release).
Ya, $300 US...maybe higher.

I don't think I'm getting it for a while though

If this improved version had been saved, billed only as Halo 2 and the game made its worldwide debut with the X-Box 360, I honestly think console sales would be at least 50% higher in the first week.

As it is...eh...

From what has been speculated, you both are right.

No way man! It took 4 years for GT4 and they couldn't put everything that they wanted in it.

I'm guessing some Jak/Sly/Rachet game, something from Square, regular sports lineup from EA.
