With shipped Numbers ?, almost every big game because the Bundle alone usually cost 5-7 Units of the game. and as i said Halo 1 and 2 were on PC, the 110 Millions of Units sold for Final Fantasy was on 2014 where the only main tittle avaliable on PC was FFXIII.

65 Millions to 110 Millions is a big difference.

And back with the 500 Millions in Revenue this means  over 8.5 Millions of units sold full price at retail even if the game had a lot of legendary edition it would not be less than 8 Millions units sold first week you need to boost it with Hardware, Compare Software with Software Halo 5 sold 2+ Millions at Retail First Week lets say 5% is of Legendary Edition this is over 130+ Millions of US$ First week (with the Microtransactions and other related items it  could have been 140+ Millions), GTA V Sold more than a dozen of Millions day 1 and even so it did over 1 Billion in Revenue in the first week.

It is unfair to  use Bundle's revenue together with the Hardware's revenue just to make the numbers go up.

I am not sure where you’re trying to go with this. Halo 5 is still regarded as a box office success, it brought in half a billion dollars in its first week regardless if it bundled or not because in Halo 5's case, it was the most expensive bundle on the market which means that gamers brought that bundle because they wanted Halo 5. Unlike the UC Collection for PS4 which was the cheapest bundle on the market, which means that gamers would have flocked to it even if they didn’t want Uncharted because it’s the cheapest option. Halo + Hardware + Digital + Merchandise clearly shows that Halo 5 is an amazing success even if you disagree. Numbers don’t lie and in this case, $500m isn’t something many games can do. Will see if FF15 makes that much in its first week.

Ever way, if it’s got Halo 5’s name on it, it should be counted because it’s all part of it.

And just FYI, Halo 5 is most likely sitting on 4m sales (Not including Digital) and it has already made its money back. The back will probably die on 6m sales by the time Halo 6 releases. Doesn’t sound like a bad number to me, after all Uncharted games sell 6m per entry.

Xbox One's best selling bundle was Gears of War 4, you don't understand that those numbers are ? they are Shipped numbers from Launch so the consumers don't purchased it, otherwise they would need 1.5+ Millions of software sales + 750-800 Thousands of Bundles sold First week, Xbox One only sold 330 Thousands on USA that month and USA count for more than Half of Xbox One's Hardware.

 

Shipped means they just sent to the stores Halo in Software sales don't made more than 140 Millions First Week which Final Fantasy XV can break on Japan only if sell like a Regular Final Fantasy game.

Again we were comparing Halo and Final Fantasy because you said that Halo had other midias, but those other midias are just Advertisement they were not a success on other midias like Pokemon, Yu Gi Oh.

Final Fantasy Advent Children's Movie was released on DVD and UMD it sold 4+ Millions of units Worldwide before the release of the Final Version, in Japan nearly the majority of the Initial sales was of the Legendary Edition, the Blu-ray version also wasn't cheap in Japan.

From the 4 Millions 2+ Millions sold outside of Japan.

 

Neither Halo or Uncharted are famous outside of gaming.
