Bundle sold better, but that's because $349 vs $499. Halo game itself much better. Clearly a decent number of people bought a different Xb one sku and bought Halo separately. If you buy the right sku you wind up for 4 or maybe 5 games and a new Xb one for nearly $100 less than the LE bundle. I know which option I'd choose if I was wanting to buy a Xb one and Halo 5. |
That may be but it's still halo after all. Combined with the relatively low hardware and software it sold last month, that's not very good news for Microsoft, considering what the brand used to pull off with ease.
This is just another sign that halo is no longer the sales juggernaut it once was and basically leaves Xbox on equal footing as ps as far as games selling gangbusters goes. And without a huge hardware selling ip now, Microsoft is in for a long gen.
Yes halo is still big but nothing like it used to be.
