7.3 million in just over 2 months.... On a console that is lagging behind it's main competitor... Whose previous entry did not do nearly as well on the 360 which had a much larger install base(despite universal positive reviews)... After the MCC debacle... With an over priced bundle.... With stiff 3rd party competition(COD, Battlefront, Assassin's Creed, Fallout 4...)...

Is Halo 5 the new Minecraft?

It will be a success, but Destiny sold 5M copies 5W on twice as many consoles with what must be termed as "insane" hype." It's only at 8M now, on an install base that is three times as large as the one X1 has now.

No doubt it will be a hit. But 6-7 million in 2 months is stretching in my humble opinion. I think Destiny actually got way more hype than Halo 5 has. Probably because of Sony/Activision's push for it, Bungie going multiplatform, the pseudo MMO first person RPG angle...
