Now vgchartz numbers are garbage to some people, wow

Yeah, the way I see this site should always be live by the sword and die by the sword, it's silly to one week have a thread about how great a certain game according to the sales here.. but the next week dismiss them as being nonsense numbers with no basis in reality.

I mean for games like UC4 and Halo 5 most of the figures have probably been adjusted in line with sales figures from other sources by now so they would be within the 5% margin that Brett likes to keep on the numbers here.

 

OT though - That is a pretty cool feat, I think at the time where Uncharted one launched against Halo 3 there was no real dream that the series would outsell a numbered Halo game, of course the install base of the X1 compared to PS4 makes this happen but still makes me think, is there going to come a time when Halo comes to the PC so that those who installed Vista to play Halo 2 will finally get to finish the fight on their system of choice.

The difference in userbase may have helped and if they were Multiplats I would agree with you (where usually Xbox sells a higher tie ratio because they have more USA sales) but when we think Halo would be the system seller them we can see it's much of a failure since it didn't moved consoles enough.
