It's certainly a superb deal, it will almost certainly become the best-selling non-Nintendo remake/compilation, and it will probably move some units (it's certainly the reason why I'm getting an XBO). However, I still remain skeptical that it will be as big as a main series Halo game, in terms of either unit sales or its ability to shift hardware. Historically speaking, remakes & compilations have never been big system-sellers (Pokemon remakes being notable exceptions), and even Halo CE Anniversary wasn't terribly huge. Then again, the MCC is no ordinary compilation. In addition to the campaigns for Halo 1-4, including HCEA and Halo 2 Anniversary, it also has the complete multiplayer experience for all four games. It marks the first time Halo 1's MP has been playable on XBL (the biggest attraction for me), as well as the return of Halo 2 to XBL after the 2010 shutdown of the OG Xbox servers, not to mention six remade Halo 2 maps with refined graphics and gameplay. It also has a pass for the Halo 5 beta, plus some other goodies. The MCC should do well, but I also think we should temper our expectations. I think maybe 5 million units lifetime plus a more modest hardware boost than what we saw with previous Halo games.

It has 2000 GamerScore.

If anything, I'd doubt the impact halo 5 will have, relative to the MCC ;)

It has 4500 gamerscore.
