To those saying that this will move a ton of consoles too, you really have to look at the history of remakes to see that there is zero chance it makes any huge impact.

Wind Waker - Gamecube 4.6 million / Wii U 1 million

Halo 1 - Xbox 6.4 million / Xbox 360 2.25 million

God of War 1+2 - PS2 8.7 million / PS4 2.3 million.


These remakes time and time again have proven to only sell anywhere from 25 to 40 percent of their original games sales. Even if the Halo Collection exceeds those numbers and does 45 percent of the originals, then we are looking at about 4.8 million in lifetime sales and that is the absolute ceiling. Now you have to take into account all of the other new games that will be released during the holiday season (Super Smash Bros mainly), and Microsoft is just setting themselves up for failure.

Halo AE did 2.25 million and that was one game, this is 4 games with even more content than just that.halo 1 was single player with multiplayer that was essentially just dlc for halo reach. That hurt it's hype, review scores, and sales. If it would have actually had halo 1's multiplayer it would probably be at 3 million or more. Also halo 1 AE didn't get bundled this will be.This is not just 4 games it also has a halo tv show, and a beta to halo 5. I'd reckon the beta will get it an extra 500k-1m game sales. Remember the little game called halo odst. WAit it was actually called halo 3 odst, so it was basically an expansion to halo 3. So had the f@&$ did it sell 6 million copies? I'd bet that reach beta with it sure helped a lot.

idk maybe ur right but even if u are what do expect around 3.5 million? Cause if that's so it will still be a success. That's better than titanfall. I'm anticipating more than 5 million copies. How much more idk if say 7 million is probably the max. Even if it only does 3.5 tho there's still forza, sunset, project spark, and dance central this year alone.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.
