Halo2 garnishes $125 million in its first day

I guess for those wondering whether Halo2 would be a smash success upon opening day, all the doubting is over.  $125 in sales in the first 24 hours.

The game's $125 million opening day lives up to Microsoft predictions that "Halo 2" would eclipse even the biggest Hollywood openings. "Spider-Man" holds the record for biggest opening weekend box office take, raking in a comparatively paltry $114 million over three days.

Will such a lauch bode well, or poorly for the games biz.  Will this mega success make other game launches seem, well, uninspiring?
