» Actually....
pwnage was rooted in one of the first warcraft games... not WoW it was a message where a villan or someone said pwned after he killed you, It caught on, well that was one of the big factors but you could say that a typo coming from anyone could have started it

" you can just hope that now (on theyr 3rd try) they make the game worth the hype..."
I guess that halo 1 & 2 were worth the hype. Personally I didn't either one of them, but most people did.

all you idiots arguing about the way computer abusers speak should stop bickering, your breaking my buzz. Idiots.
So is it just gamestop pre-orders? I got mine at blockbuster and there isnt a gamestop in Canada, so the numbers might ne higher.

» I don't understand
I don't understand why Halo is consider the 'God game' for Xbox. This game isn't even that fun at all or entertaining, and yes, I have played, I have a 360. *****, if there's anything worth getting, its something new like BioShock then a trilogy game..

» It's not true
Sorry, I'm a huge Halo fan, but this simply is not true, and anyone who thinks it is has no common sense.
You can ask any of the GameStops near you and I guarantee they will say they have no more than 200-300 preorders. All of mine say they have less than 250, and I live in a very busy area with lots of younger people. GameStop operates 4,066 stores in NA, so do the math. No store except for the biggest in the country has over 300 preorders, 4,066 x 300 = 1,219,800, and that's if they all hit that 300. Many don't even get 150, so the preorder count is no more than 800,000. That's still a big number granted, but four million is just outlandish.

» Nah man
Look I love Halo but I would have to say he's right. Even with online preorders it isn't nearly 4 million. Don't you think if it was true it'd be all over the Net, and GameStop/EB themselves (along with Microsoft) would be flaunting it to the max? Either you are very naive or you just defend everything and anything about Halo

» MS will wait until the time is right to release this.
This is going to sell a huge amount of consoles and I expect MS are waiting to strike at Sony if they do a price drop or release a big Rehashed PS1 game launch(MGS4, FF etc) before release, like they did with Gears which completely drowned out the PS3 launch..
