Halo isn't what it used to Be

Again, consistently.  Do you expect anything on WiiU to replicate the success of Wii with as many casuals as it had?  That audience is gone therefor your sales are going to shrink considerably and that is exactly what is happening.   If i'd bet on anything this generation, id bet on Uncharted increasing and maybe matching Halo.  But on Nintendo's side, i doubt it.  Look at Gamecube numbers and that will be more telling than the Wii

Whether it is undertracked or not it is 5-7 million below GT5.  I can imagine GT7 will do much better, but im curious to see if people will buy into it as much as it use to be. Id predict 7m at least though

I already covered that too "You did say "right now", but seeing as the last numbered release was on a 7th gen system, and MCC not being the highest selling 8th gen exclusive, your comment wouldn't make much sense unless you exclude the Wii, DS and 3DS."

Really though, i'm going to end this conversation here. All i did was point out that he might like to rethink his use of the word "any". I see no reason people should be expected to assume he's including [x], excluding [y] and limiting it to a specific context, especially when all those conditions contradict the literal statement. Life would be awfully complex if that much interpretation was needed to understand a single word ^^

Well I said right now, and then when you commented I said consistently. Either way you slice it, Halo still sells more than any other exclusive on consoles. No point to keep arguing with you though, my point is valid. Every year people say Halo is dying blah blah blah and everytime the game sells fine.  I am really enthusiastic about Halo 5.

Also my point wasn't to denigrate the franchises of other consoles, it was to emphasize that despite all the doom and gloom everytime anotherer Halo comes around, it still averages some of the highest sells of all exclusives.
