You can't just compare install base percentages for two games and say one outperformed the other because it has a higher percentage. Sales of any individual franchise do not go up linearly with install base so a percentage of userbase is just a fun factoid without enough information to compare two games with different install bases.
As an illustration here's a graph of madden sales in the US compared to X360 install base.
This is by no means a linear relationship. Now it's possible that Halo series does have a linear relationship but you can't decide that based off two points (since you decided only 343 developed games count in a later post). That simply isn't how math works and an assumption of linearity in an install base to individual game sales relationship would only make sense if all other franchises which had enough games to come to a conclusion had had a linear relationship between the two. Obviously given the example I just showed you above, that simply isn't the case.
