Halo and mario was milked a lot yet their sales still so high and there's no sign of big fall.

as i said HALO benefits alot from massive microsoft marketing,before COD - almost nody wud market a game bigger than MICROSOFT marketing for HALO

plus HALO has been bundled the hell out of 360  and now MASTER CHIEF collection is being bundled with XBONE

 

If not for discounting,bundling,marketing - HALO 3 wud have sat near 8-9million and other HALO's wud also see atleast 20% sales decline

 

All games get discount and if someone is not intersted in a games he will not buy it no matter how much you bundle it and how much you make discuounts.

i wasn't really talking abt game discounts,if you have been following gaming for long time.you would know MICROSOFT used to diiscoun the shit out of 360 and used to bundle HALO all year round

if someone is not interested in the game but is getting the console $100 cheaper and with a free game,they are gonna buy the console no matter what

bundling impacts game sales BIG TIME,do you really think SUPER MARIO BROS and Wii Sports sold well on their own basis?......lol

And the whole walking dead serie sold 8.5 millions that less then The last of us how walking dead helped The last of us

i never said walking dead is the only reason LAST OF US sold so much

just that it helped as it popularised the Zombie genre single-handidly
