Halo 2 pre-sales hit 1.5 million

Well, Microsoft has now confirmed that presales for this fall’s most anticipated sequel have reached the 1.5 million mark! Translation: within its first 24 hours Halo 2 will bring in more sales than any blockbuster movie has in that same timeframe, ever. Period.

I haven't placed my pre-order yet, so it's at least 1.5 million and one.
