No shit Halo 3 did better than the other games in the series, it had no competition. Now Halo is going up against a lot of strong competition. If Sony or Microsoft was the only consoles available then they will get more sales indvidually because lack of choice. Halo 5 regardless is still the biggest exclusive franchise and one of the biggest fps that didn't even really recieve any drop from Halo 4 sales. If anything it recieved more when you go by software attach ratio and how much was sold. Either way, Halo is doing fine and selling great and Microsoft is always expanding the universe. 

Citation. Needed.

Seriously, stop basing your claims on repetitive insistence.

The sales from OP that we are going by said about 1.5 million in the US in about half a week.  It will be over 2 million not including digital and worldwide sales. Halo 4 sold 3.8 million in it's first week world wide. All it needs to do pretty much is gather 1.8 million from worldwide (outside of U.S.) sales and digital. That isn't a whole lot and again, my next sentence clearly talked about software attach ratio. Halo 4 had the luxry releasing on a console with around 80 million sales while Halo 5 came out around when Xbox One sold about 15 - 18 million. Reality is Halo 5 is doing better than Halo 4 but not as good as Halo 3 obviously because it had no competition. That is why I used the word "really" in the sentece you bolded.
