Well you have to think when Halo 5 releases the XONE would have probably sold around 14-15 million. With Exclusives on the new systems not exactly coming out every which way but where, Halo 5 could easy sell 7 Million launch week. Also I think Halo is a bigger franchise to most gamers .it's a game that would get mentioned in Tabloid news papers and non gaming blogs. Much like GTA . Uncharted is a a niche kind of slightly on rails type of game from past episodes . i have encountered. Uncharted does not have the clout behind it ,it's not a name in general gaming .it seems only relevant to Sony Gamers. Halo is a game Sony gamers have been craving for since Day one when launched on original XBOX.

So because of this i fell Halo 5 will will wipe the floor with Uncharted in the sales department. Regardless if Uncharted releases in 2015 or even early 2016 when the PS4 install base will be even bigger.

I reckon it's possible for a Halo 5 to sell to 60 -70 % of the Xbox One install base when you consider that the first game was selling at launch to 50 % of Xbox Owners .And this increased with Halo 2.

I can't see Uncharted selling to more then 30 % of the install base of PS4 , i would be surprised.

Also Halo is a game people track down later in a games cycle ,some one who buys a XBOX one in three years will probably want to get Halo 5 play it before playing Halo 6 or 7.

Anyone buying a PS4 in three years will look over Uncharted 4 . Halo is a long term seller ,it has legs

But, if Halo 5 sells to around 60-70% of the userbase as you have guessed in just 2015 (which in itself is very very unlikely) and Uncharted only sells to 30% of PS4 owners (as you have guessed) then Uncharted wins over its lifespan...

Whether Halo 5 has longer legs is by the by, as the prediction is just for sales in 2015 of Halo, compared to Uncharteds lifetime sales.
