The best-selling HD Collection so far, God Of War: Collection, was also the first one to be released, ironically, by Sony. It has sold over 2.4 million units on PS3 alone as of May 31st, 2012. By now probably it has sold way more, I'd guess over 2.6 million units on PS3 alone. We also know that it has sold well digitally on the PS Vita, but have no idea exactly how well it has sold on that platform.So let's only consider the PS3 version. Can Halo: MCC outsell it?

We have to consider the following factors:

1. Halo: MCC is launching on a much smaller install base than GOW: Collection (+ GOW, - Halo)

2. Halo: MCC consists of 4 games while GOW: Collection consisted of just 2 games (+ Halo, - GOW)

3. Halo is a bigger franchise than GOW (+ Halo, - GOW)

4. Halo: MCC is launching for $60 while GOW: Collection launched for $40 (+ GOW, - Halo)

5. Halo games have multiplayer modes while GOW and GOW II don't have any (+ Halo, - GOW)

6. Halo CE, 2, 3 and 4 have lengthier single-player campaigns compared to GOW and GOW II (+ Halo, - GOW)

 

These points may favour Halo: MCC, but its not decided just yet.

When someone makes a list of points, typically, the first point is the most important.
When you look at your first point, it directly relates to the sales of the game.  Additional points are usually made because the poster is biased and wants a particular side to win.

You could easily add more points and make GOW win.  Just silliness...

WTF dude have you checked out my sig? My top 10 favourite games of all time include 3 GOW games, why would I be biased against it? I listed more than one point because they are all relevant, and I didn't exactly say which game would win, just gave some points to think about before you decide.
