Going into this I remember predicting 5 million and saying that I thought I was being optimistic. Halo 5 didn't sell well when you look at past titles. This kinda reminds me of how Forza just collapsed. I think its time for them to establish some new franchises. I fear that Gears 4 will be down too.

 

Forza 6 didn't collapse with digital included it already sold over a million copies and it has better legs then Forza Horizon 2.  Also once the Porsche pack drops early next year its legs will get a boost.

I don't think so.  It did not reach 1 million and you know it.  Trying to guess what digital sales are is crazy on a console that hides physical console sales.    Forza 6 FAILED.  But I think that Halo 5's failure is much more pronounced.   I understand that they community serves at the pleasere of Phil Spencer and that is like the whole point to everything but still, the exclusives are selling very badly.   I am upset because I thought that those games are the ones that made Xbox gamers so excited about owning the system.   Imagine to my suprise when Call of Duty completely destroys Halo on Xbox One. And look, the same thing happened on PlayStation 4 so maybe everyone is just a bunch of liars and we all want multiplats. 

 

LOL have you actually looked at the recent physical numbers it already sold over 900K physical copies plus a ton of people I know bought the Utimate Edition digitally like I did for early access to the game.  Plus the game was one sale digitally just a week ago it sold well over a million copies including digitally more then a while ago already.  Foza 6 didn't fail I didn't cost that much to make since it uses the same engine as Forza 5 its not like Forza 3 which was almost a complete reboot over Forza 2 (car models got enhanced, they added a lot more tracks and cars, new car physics engine, every car got fully modeled interior etc etc).  

Yes it indeed was a Faill, you Know that when after the game Launchs the developers begin to Sell Microtransations, that were Hidden and would only be used if the game did not make a lot of Money.

Forza 6's Launch was the same or even worse than Dragon Quest Heros's launch on the USA, the game only sold more Copies after launch because Had a Bundle with the Xbox One, and sold more on Black Friday, dont think that if they did not continue to Bundle the game, that he Magically will sell a lot more than the Launch.

The Funny thing is that Drive Club, launched on October 2014, sold 2 Millions until July 2015, and the game was considered a "Flop", Forza, did less than 1 Million in retail until now and is a game from the "Ultimate Line Up OF the Goddess", i dont see Forza 6, Selling anything  Crazy after the Holiday Season, and  i thing they will announce a new Forza Game, on E3.

this will Hurt a lot the sales of Forza 6, and Driveclub, until now after more than 1 year  are still receiving new things from the developers, this encourage people to buy the game.
