If so, then how do we break this down? How do we know how many copies were actually sold through? 

It was ready to launch two months ago when they demoed it during a weekend... 

I can only conclude one thing if we take this for granted: That Halo 5 did sell nearly half of it's numbers digitally as I claimed. It's the only explanation behind this and NPD numbers being the way they were. 

And if that is really the case, then the number is probably way beyond this now... 

This isn't the only explanation, Halo isn't more popular Out-side of the USA so  majority of the sales must be from USA, those 5 Millions can mean Shipped.

From the 440 Millions in the first week, The numbers of Microsoft's PR,  Can you explain this PR ? to achieve 440 Millions First week with a Legendary Edition costing 220US$ and a Bundle Costing 500US$,  they would need atleast 850.000+ Bundles, or 7.5 Millions of units sold (including some legendary editions), so those 440 Millions were Shipped numbers.

I can understand those, since they actually seem like what MS expects...

Actually, at least if we believe vgchartz Halo has become more popular in europe percentagewise. And that could be explained with european Xbox owners more being the core/fan audience than last gen.

It has become far bigger than it used to be here in Spain at least. Now almost anyone in this country who plays game will have played Halo at some point...
