The Best Selling Halo Games of All-Time

With the release of Halo: Reach right around the corner, we thought now would be a good time to see what were the best selling games in the series to date.

I thought there were just 3! Lol, halo.

Best selling Halo games? Halo 3, then 2, then 1. Thanks for coming out.

Then there were expansion packs and a RTS game that didn't sell as well.

There. I just compressed this 4 sentence "article" down to 2. I like Halo just as much as the next guy, perhaps more so, but what a waste of a click. You can ask anyone who knows anything about Halo "Hey, what are the best selling Halo games?" and the'd correctly answer "Um. 3, 2, 1?"

Why is this on a news site for gamers?

Why did ign put map pack editions on there list ?

[BeaArthur]

That is kind of weird since it's called Halo games, not Halo games and DLC.

For Halo 2, they released a disc version for the multiplayer maps.

See, with Final Fantasy this makes sense because there are 13 of them. But there are only 4 (5 if you count the RTS) Halo games of yet.

I'm pretty sure there's more than 13 FF games. There's bound to be various spinoffs on the PSP, DS and other platforms. Look at the upcoming Versus; it's a FF game, but doesn't bear a number in it's name.

[siyrobbo]

definately more than 13 FF's, many more if you include the remakes

[OlvaR]

why didn't they add halo 3 dlc also?...i mean what the hell, since when the dlc counts as stand alone games?

[RockmanII7]

Some of the Halo 2 DLC was sold on a disc.

Someone over at IGN must not have shown up for work today so they let an intern write this during their lunch break. They could have Twittered this article or text it.

Best selling Halo game 3, 2, 1 and ODST (send)

[ATLGAMER]

just like Odst will show that people are now on that COD type shooter will sell well but not like previous games

[SixZeroFour]

actually i kinda agree, although i personally think it shouldnt be true...i think that REACH will sell more than odst, but not as much as halo 3 cause ppl already moved on...in the long run after a lot of word of mouth advertising from friends, it should be able to outsell mw2 on 360, but for now i think many ppl moved on to mw2 and gears

regardless of how much it sells though, this will surely be a game i play for years on end

[ExPresident]

How does stuff like this get approved? :(

[MexicanAppleThief]

Wow IGN, an idiot could've wrote this.

[ShadesMoolah]

dumbest article ever.

[dachiefsman]

it would have been nice if they would have provided some defined numbers from a source even though once could have surmised that this list was obvious.

[Spenok]

Does this realy matter? Its not exactly news.
