Reggie On Halo: 'What's New?'

[Demon_Skeith]

Nintendo head Reggie Fils-Aime isn't sure blockbuster Halo 3 will sell many Xbox 360 consoles.

"Will they sell a lot of software? Certainly. Will it sell hardware? I think it's an open question," Reggie said."I think that the Halo 3 consumer already has the hardware, because they're playing Bioshock and Crackdown and a variety of games that are, in the end, quite similar: first-person shooter experience, multiplayer capable online. Tell me what's new?"

Fils-Aime went on to state that the Nintendo doesn't really have to compete directly with the release of Halo 3; instead Nintendo is focusing on a variety of software titles.

Do you agree? Will Halo sell consoles?

I think it will sell some, but I think he is right that most of the people that wanted Halo 3 already had a 360. I know a lot of people that bought Halo 3, but none of them bought a 360 (they all already had one).
