Re: One Step Forward and Two Steps Back.

In Response To: Re: One Step Forward and Two Steps Back. (Louis Wu)


: Again - remember that when Halo 3 launched, the worldwide installed base of
: Xbox 360s was below 15M.

: It's now above 55M.

: Having the same number of players as a game that came out when a quarter as
: many consoles were out in the wild isn't really impressive.

Thanks for those two installed unit numbers of 15M and 55M. I hadn't found them till now, although a few of my posts have stated I didn't know those numbers.

Always my point to Halo REACH fans is to say, "don't worry, you've got lots of people to play with, even relative to Halo 3". If I can change any unfounded negative attitude back to positive, it helps me in the long run.

: Personally, I play Reach MUCH more than I've played ANY of its predecessors.
: My personal opinion here is irrelevant.

Actually I think it (your opinion) is extremely important and far outweighs that of the average Halo fan. What if Louis Wu had said he wasn't fond of the latest Halo game and that he didn't play it as much and instead went back and played an older Halo. That, in my opinion, would be bigger news than a lot of the other tripe parading around as news. I'm thinking news like that would get spread like fire across other Halo fan sites with a possible effect the general overlying attitude towards that game was one of negativity and expected failure. People who become quietly powerful can tend to underestimate their effect on other people.
