Funny all the sony fans (I didn't say fanboys so don't hate mods) are all in this thread talking down on this game even though they will never even play it. This game is going to sell about 10 million at least in its lifetime so its all good. Hell titanfall sold over 7million so this should be easy for Halo 5.

Not that I've talked down the game, but you don't have to play a specific game to undrstand certain concepts like length of a campaign, graphics, glitches, launch problems, microtransactions, DLC in general, online netcode, etc, and have opinions about that. The point of open discussions is that everyone can voice their opinions.

As for Titanfall, it did not reach 7 million sales, but has had 7 million unique players playing it, as the Titanfall producer pointed out.  "This does not mean 7m sold. This means 7m people have played the game."
One thing to consider here is that Titanfall was free to play on Origin for a few days.
Though this game is also available on three platforms. XB1, 360 and PC. Halo 5 is only on XB1, so I dunno about that comparison.

No, that was 10 million unique players. Also, this was counting retail sales and most people bought the retail version on xbox one. If titan fall a new ip can do well on xbox one I am certain Halo 5 will have no problem. And yes, you need to play the game to understand what it is about and have an idea on multiplayer.  You can only make few assumptions about what someone says. Although Angry joe scored it above average, most reputable big sites like IGN, Gametrailers and Gamespot loved the game and praised it. I didn't care for Halo storyline, but the multiplayer and gameplay is probably the best this generation going by fps standards.
