Well considering Halo 4 sold 9.7 million, and Uncharted 3 sold 6.8 million, that is a gap of 3 million.

Now let's say Halo 5 sells 20% less than halo 4 lifetime, Halo 5 would still sell 7.1 million copies. Now Uncharted 3 sold 6.8 million on PS3 with a install base of 85 million.

Considering the PS4 is at 50% where the PS3 is Uncharted 4 can only hope to reach the 6 million units but not 7 million. Therefore I see Halo 5 selling at least 1 million copies more than uncharted 4.

Halo hasn't lost any fans and I think PlayStation fans are getting ahead of themselves thinking uncharted 4 could even outsell a HALO game.

The only Halo game that Uncharted 4 could probably outsell is halo wars 2.

I love this post so much.  

How is Halo 5 supposed to sell 20% less, when it's tracking so far below that?

Why did you ignore the Xbox One install base, whereas the PS4 install base (which is obviously much larger) is apparently detrimentally small?  

If Halo hasn't lost any fans, why isn't it selling very well?

IIRC, Halo 3 sold (WAY) better on 360 at a point when there were less 360s on the market than there were X1s on H5's launch.
