We know that Halo 5 sold 150K physical copies in the UK, so retail sales in the US/UK range between 1.55 - 1.65 million. To be generous, let's assume Halo 5 sold 1.65 million. I don't like assuming an exact percentage, so I'm going to use a range of 20-30% digital rate. As a result, Halo 5's sales across the US/UK falls between 1.98 - 2.145 million. I have no idea how much it has sold in the ROTW, but it's likely very low. Germany and maybe France are the only other countries where Halo 5 actually sold anything significant.

The op source said debut month. Which means it is missing 3 days for the full week. When you add that it will be around 3 million easy world wide in its first week. That is great sales no matter what you say.

Again, Halo 3 was also tracked for nearly the same anount of days, so Halo 5 missing 3 days for the full week is not a valid excuse. In addition, if sales were around 3 million in it's first week so easily, then Microsoft would have mentioned that in their PR already. However, the company did not.

If memory serves me correctly, Microsoft never released sales for their Halo games first week. They always talked about revenue because that is what Share holders care about is money.
