Synesthesia said: "Halo 5: Guardians has made history as the biggest Halo launch and fastest-selling Xbox One exclusive game to-date" The wording here is odd... Is it the biggest Halo launch on Xbox ONE or biggest in Halo franchise history as a whole? "with more than $400 million in global sales of Halo 5: Guardians games and hardware" What exactly is the point of being so unclear if it supposedly did so well? This just seems bizarre how hard the statement goes out of the way not to make it clear. Given how over priced the bundle was and that hardware is a very general term that goes beyond just the console. We still have zero clue on halo's sales. No conclusions can be made at all on how well Halo did or if it performed poorly compared to its predecessors IMO. Microsoft is trying their hardest not to let us figure it out. |
We can guess pretty easily that the software sales are not as good as the previous games, that's what the "best software + hardware" means.
Awesome PR spin, almost a joy to try to analyze it ^^ (thanks Halo 5 for giving Xbox One owners a great FPS game and other people another great mystery game! :D )
