Thats exactly what I was asking for... thanks rattle.

BTW. I thought halo 2 was gonna be up there but a little more up hehe. I think halo 3 will beat some of these top guys... the worst thing is, that nowadays these games can be copied... not mario 1 or 3, or it was not so accesible as copies are today... well, i dont care if they break a record or not, I'm happy already...

WOLF, YOU ARE NEXT BIOTCH

np man... I would love halo 3 to sell over 10 mil but it will be hard to do since as of now there are only about 11-12 Mil xbox 360's that have been sold. but it is off to a great start and I think im not 100% for sure that it is already the highest selling game on the 360 beating Gears of War.
