In fact, Halo 3 made more money in 24 hours than Spider-Man 3 made during its three-day opening-weekend ($151 million).So far, more than 1 million players have logged on the play the networked Xbox Live version of Halo 3.
The game is expected to give a huge boost to the Xbox 360. Lately, the runaway success of the Nintendo Wii has been a thorn in the side of both Microsoft and Sony.

I just got this game from gamefly today. It only took them 2 days to ship it. I must say the game is pretty good.
Odd how here in Europe the halo craze seems to be nonexistent. Might be due to the low penetration of the xbox, I hardly known anyone who owns one.
Played Halo PC, it was ok but no match for Half Life
