Halo 3 hours and "number of players"
More than 2.7 million gamers have played “Halo 3” on Xbox LIVE in the first week, representing nearly one-third of the 7 million Xbox LIVE members worldwide. Within the first day of its launch, “Halo 3” players worldwide racked up more than 3.6 million hours of online gameplay, which increased more than elevenfold to 40 million hours by the end of the first week,

Halo 4 hours and "number of players"
Halo 4” also shattered the record for the largest number of players in the history of the “Halo” franchise, with over 4 million players in the first five days. Users spent a total of 31.4 million hours playing “Halo 4,”

Halo 5 hours and "number of players"
Fans have logged more than 21 million hours of total gameplay, including 12 million hours in campaign mode alone.
For Halo 5 we get the hours but no "number of players". And if we compare those hours...


I can play this game too. Halo 3 had 3.6 million hours spent online. Halo 5 had 9 million. 

Except that's comparing the first day of Halo 3 to the first week of Halo 5.... it's 40 million vs 9 million.
Actually they don't state the time span for Halo 5, but I doubt it wouldn't be up to date for the release of the statement.

I'm more interested in what the digital percentage of sales is for the fastest digital selling game. 20%, 30%, more?

This will be a very skewed number as well, because all of the LE edition and H5 bundles come with code redemptions for the digital version, and as such will come from the digital store.
