Hmmm.... What does it mean then? That the franchise is on the rise?

 

If Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare did 10 million on all platforms combined, would you call that a success and say the game did wonders? Because I doubt Activision would...

4m is not a flop and the game will end up selling 6 to 7m lifetime. Its all about the profits not the sale numbers. Halo 5 made $500m in its first week, twice that of Halo 4 so you do the maths. Anything with Halo 5 on it has made gold. You can sell a game for $1 and sell 10m copies or you could sell a game for $60 and sell 5m copies, whats more successful? Not the game being sold for $1. Sales dont matter, aslong as the profit growth is improving and Halo 5 is far from an exception.

So to anwser your question, Yes Halo is on the rise because Halo 5 made half a billion in its first week.

So you legitimately think Halo 5 did better than Halo 4? Mmmkay good to know.
