Outperforming as in performance, not sales. You can't expect 20 million Xbox One owners to buy what 80 million did...



 

You could easily get a job for PR at MS. You should apply.

I am serious here. You are expecting the 343i Halo to outsell it's predecessor when it had 6 times more people that might show interest in the game? What kind of twisted logic is that?

Yeah...but...you said it was outperforming Halo 4...it's not. It's way, way behind.

You pretty much can when it comes to Halo. Halo 3 sold more then Halo 5 on a smaller install base.

But that was Halo 3. I don't think any Halo will surpass it unless the amount of Xbox console owners surpasses the 100M mark.

NO ONE can compare the third entry to any other Halo. We all know we will never see one as good as H3. The only fair comparison is 4, since it was the only other game developed by 343i, and it matched Halo 3, but it had 6 times the gamers to sell to.

IN fact, since the amount of users fluctuates, using anything other than percentages to gauge a games success is foolish at best and laughable at worst. Or are you telling me that this Halo had to sell like H3?
