Of course, more people saw Spiderman than bought Halo 2. I think its cool and all, but this is like comparing apples to oranges. Now I would like to know what the biggest selling album premier or dvd release is.
That would be a much better comparison. -----Original Message----- From: Erika L.

Which is ironic really, given that, at $125 million, the game's first day sales have outperformed any Hollywood blockbuster's opening weekend. Ever. According to Microsoft, the sequel to the immensely popular Xbox game sold more than 2.38 million copies on its release, which, if you hadn't guessed, is one hell of a lot of games. Not even Spider-Man with its record-breaking $114 million opening weekend can hold a candle to Halo's launch, making this a very good day for the folks at Bungie software, who made it all possible.
