Let me get this straight Azzanation.

You are saying that Halo 5 having sold WAY less than Halo 3 and reviewed 10 points BELOW, the game is bigger in what way? The franchise is bigger how?

Explain that to us, please.

Do you know what revenue is? Profit? popularity? All this make up the franchise not just in sales. Today there would be barely anyone who doesnt know what Halo is where as in 2007 it was still climbing.

Your argument is that you enjoyed the games more in 2007, doesnt make it bigger. Xbox's bigest franchises all released in the same time period in 2015. Sorry to say but Bioshock in terms of franchise isnt bigger then Halo, TR, Forza, Fable, Gears etc. Neither is half the dozen Japanese games you mention. Thats why its called Xbox's biggest line-up in history.

 

How can a game be more popular by selling less?

How can a game be more profitable by selling less?

Do you honestly think Sales make up the entire profit of a game? What about Toys, Accessories, Hardware, Digital etc. There are many ways to make profit then phyical sales. Never base a games success based off its phyical sales because Sales can be misleading. MS could sell Halo 5 for $3 for years and say they  
sold 50m units. Does that make it successful?
