Microsoft also said in their PR statement that Halo 5 was the best selling digital game on Xbox One. So 10-20% does not sound reasonable.

But 20% of 1.5 million, as USA only, is a lot and 20% of global is even more. According to VGC the best global week 1 for Xb one is CoD AW at 1.7 million. So if AW did 20% of 1.7 million week 1, and Halo 5 has global physcial sales of 2.1 million week 1 then 20% of 2.1 million > 20% of 1.7 million, hence biggest digital game on Xb one. I'm sure MS doesn't mean biggest digital LTD, just biggest digital opening week / launch period.

Looking at Amazon, the digital version of Halo 5 sold a really good amount for October. More than I've seen a digital console game for the monthly. And apparently this number isn't even counting bundle sales. There's more factors at play here these days.

This. This makes sense to me. You have to consider all bundles all special editions all digital versions hardware bundles and more.
