Considering 85m PS3s sold compared to 15m X1s sold and both Halo5 and GT6 end up on the same figures.. hmm interesting attach ratio.

You cant tell me everyone sold there PS3s to purchase PS4 because if that was true than PS4s would of sold around the 85m mark at launch haha thats a poor excuse to why a game didn't sell. 

Just remember Halo5 is still selling and probably finish up on 6m to 7m lifetime which are reasonably great numbers for any game. Just fual for thought, Sonys greatest ever game TLOU sold 7m. So i wouldnt be worried with Halo sales.

While GT6 surelly dropped off, you can't compare this install bases with the sales and get an atttach ratio. Halo 3 sold 12M, Halo 4 sold almost 10M. But the first one did it with 20M consoles, while the next game did it with 80M. Halo 4 would be considered a flop? Would it have to sell 50M to be success? Does not make sense.

Your missing the point. Sure Halo 3 sold 12m on similar consoles sold however my point is people act as if Halo 5 flopped yet it managed to sell similar numbers on a far inferior support base.

 

What game is more successful?

Halo5 = 5m sold on 15m consoles

GT6 = 5m sold on a 85m consoles 

 

Halo 5 also is still selling and could possibly retire at 7m lifetime. If Halo 5 released on the 360 it would have done 10m just like Halo 4.

 

Whats GT6s excuse? It released on the same platform as GT5 which sold 12m.

Unlike many of you in here. Halo 5 sits on a very good attach rate unlike GT6. 

Funny how some still say Halo 5 flopped on sales yet GT6 managed the same with a much larger install. I wonder if its because they dont like Microsoft?
