Halo 3 parrying PlayStation 3 launch

[MuGen]

Right now, releasing Halo 3 in correspondance with PS3 doesn't even seem like a move at all. Considering you have 80 million PS2 owners eagerly awaiting the release of PS3... give or take a few thousand people who may spring for an Xbox 360 this generation.

A game to counter attack a console launch, almost seems like desperation than a counter attack. Some how I see Forza 360 releasing when GT5 releases for their respective next-gen consoles.

But come on... Halo 3 cannot possibly even put a dent in PS3's launch. Though many of you want to think so...

Assume PS3 launches at $299. 80 million (maybe even 75 million) PS2 lovers will save upthe money towards the launch. At launch day they come in with $400 to get themselves started. A guy goes in and sees Halo 3 on the same day.... Given the prediction that games of next-gen will be maybe $10 more.... Would he spend $60 on Halo 3......NO....... He has saved up for this moment, and if he buys Halo 3... he won't have enough to buy one game for the PS3...he'd be stuck with just a PS3.

Millions of people are saving up at this moment for their own PS3. None if not 1... will go into the store with money for the PS3 and some games, and be swayed by Halo 3.

Games counter games.... not consoles... think about how much credit your actually giving Halo..
