I dunno, perhaps people are deciding not to risk delivery delays so instead of ordering online they are chosing to head down to retailers and put the console in their hot little hands straight away so there is absolutely no way they will miss the midnight kick off. Also if you get the console today then you can pre-download the game well in advance. If you buy today and use free 2-day delivery then it's at least 2 days before you can get the download going. Perhaps rather than seeing this week between hardware release and software release as having a different sales pattern that would see H5 stay higher in the rankings it should just be regarded as more or less the same as any launch. The peak is the launch day and then things drop of slowly from there. If the bundle does start going back up in the next 2 days then it will basically be following that typical release sales pattern. |
They are haeading down to retailers to buy PS4s as well and the Halo bundloe is limited which means no matter how much it sells it will not make up for the lack of sales for the other bundles.PS4 has 3 skus selling well this month while Xbox has 1.
