It isn't that hard to imagine considering the fact that Halo is a multiplayer centric game and again, it out did even COD AW on xbox store. That speaks volume. It could've easily sold very well digitally and more than the average game which is 20-25 percent of overall game sales. The only people who know 100 pecent sure is Microsoft. However, gamestop is still downplaying digital sales as usualy because that is their competition. Their stocks took a huge hit and don't want to make it sound like digital sales are the future (which it is).

so you take the average digital game sales ration from gamespot, and use it in your argument. but you dont use the fact that they said halo 5 performed in that range. even though they are written in the same article and from the exact same source. fantastic hypocrisy right there.


Gamestop used the 20 to 25 percent because thats the average for a game. Halo 5 is not the average game obviously because it sold more digitally than any other xbox game on opening week. So it makes sense to above the average at least.
