I guess that's what is Abdiel speaking about Halo 5 bundles being overshipped in in his store.

VGChartz shows it at 2.4 mil first week, while NPD has it at 3.3 mil which included 2 weeks of sales.

I could be wrong, but please provide a source to back that up.

"In the U.S., Halo 3 sold 3.3 million copies in its first 12 days on sale and an estimated 2.5 million in its first day."

http://vgsales.wikia.com/wiki/Halo

Ah, okay, but still only an estimate, but it does seem to be around that area, another report says it generated around 170 mil in revenue first day, too bad we will never know how many of that came from special and legendary editions.

I think a big part of this is Bungie no longer making it and Destiny taking fans from Halo.One if the biggest mistakes MS made was not being able to buy Bungie.Imagine the difference in sales both hardware and software.

If this is real, Bungie and Destiny and Activision and PS4 truly took Halo's mojo and audience.

That is rough, really rough. Still, some outlets gave it a free pass but it seems the gamers weren't having it.

Wow, that's with Uncharted and Zelda being delayed. It could have been even worst...

Is this confirmed or just rumor? I find it very hard to believe.
