"More aware?" You're joking, right?

"The most important effect of new Halo-branded products, however, is to make people more aware of the game."

"More aware?" You're joking, right? Try and find a gamer that doesn't know what Halo is. I can pretty much guarantee you that the game is going to be a best seller regardless of their marketing - and that anybody with an Xbox 360 is going to get it. In fact, when it comes out a lot more people are going to get the 360 simply because they want to play Halo 3.

"Transmuting Halo from geek spectacle to the mainstream . . ."

Tell me this is a joke. Halo is about as mainstream as you can get. Try and find a college campus without somebody who has an Xbox and Halo. Even on a small college campus, it was easy to get together 8 or more people and 2 or more Xboxes for the weekend.

Halo 3 is going to sell like crazy, simply because it's Halo. Even BioShock may be left eating Halo 3's dust.
