News like this falls squarely in the "no duh," category. Halo 3 is going to sell like mad, but how many units exactly is still up in the air. Michael Pachter, analyst for Wedbush Morgan, released his predictions for the Halo 3 launch and they are very generous.
"…sell over 3 million U.S. units in its first 12 days".
Three million in the first twelve days would be quite a feat for Master Chief. With the amazing fanbase and devoted buyers Halo 3 has behind it, no one should be surprised at these numbers. The big question though is if Halo 3 will break the record currently held by Spider-Man 3 in terms of making the most money within a twenty-four hour time frame.
Lazard Capital Markets analyst Colin Sebastian thinks so, stating that Halo 3 is going to make over two hundred million within the first twenty four hours. Touché Spider-Man.
