Well I'm happy with 2.75. That's only 750k less than 'it should' have done. Small install base, small marketing budget, missing content at launch. To call 2.75 terrible is crazy and down playing

It is almost half of previous entries... Halo main games do over 4 million first week.


Actually if it did 1.5 npd, that would put it at least 1.6 million(npd ended on a Saturday). Using 1.6 to estimate overseas and digital would put it at around 2.9 million. And excuse me if I'm wrong but I thought previous halo were doing about 3.5-3.9 worldwide. That would make 5 more like 75% of previous games. And to expect it to sell as much as halo 3 or 4 fw would be crazy. 

Anyway we should wait for npd to crunch the numbers.

Halo 5 should only be about a million behind Halo 4 in first week sales. Thats pretty good considering Halo 4 launched on 360 late life cycle with 80 million player fanbase. Halo 6 should do way better when it releases than Halo 5.
