Halo 3 will needs to be more than just Halo to win. Right now Bioshock, COD4, Assassin's Creed, and Mass Effect look to have better shots. I am not saying that those games won't be better, just that Halo would have to step WAY wrong not to win game of the year. If it is even close, Halo will win. "Just Halo" has been good enough to presell 2 million copies so far. "Just Halo" is like saying "Just GTA". You might as well call Xbox Live and Xbox 360 Halo Live and Halo360. I am actully looking forward more to Mass Effect. I was hoping Blue Dragon would turn out good, but it got bad reviews. I might still get it though.
