Why is this number so low?

If any of you Halo players here can make a short summary of how many hours you played alone/with your friends on the average? I'd guess that within the first days, you'd have played 10-20 hours each so that would point to 1-2mio Halos sold?

 

er... zero multiplayer and about 25 mins campaign.  People have lives and jobs you know.  I'll get into it sometime next week when time allows.

$400m  the only metric that matters

All of a sudden sales don't matter?  Some epic goal post moving here.... Without sales there is no profit or revenue...and no this is NOT the only metric that matters. How convenient it is the only number you care about now. This tells us nothing, they also included all hardware, req packs into this figure, and previosu halos they never to make it look better. Profit is more important then revenue, this is a meaningless figure without context.

 

Sales are critical, uyou think MS is ignoring Halo sales are down 60-70%? You don't think a company looks and cares about that? Please, it's a huge metric.
