Shikamaru said it very well. Just because Halo is in decline doesn’t mean it’s still not a huge franchise. Halo 4 and 5 have great metascores. I really wouldn’t talk dismissively about Halo as Halo 5 was only on one platform and to this day has a healthy multiplayer community.  Halo Infinite will be on 3 platforms, will have heavy marketing condensed in the final months of the year, limited edition bundle, and boosted with Game Pass. It’s gonna pull amazing numbers that, if played right will reach more people then even Halo 3. With 5 years, it’s really hard to rush and mess up the game. 

To be clear my stance is that next gen launch exclusives don’t score well. Forza 5 is a worst reviewed entry so it’s not just PS examples. Cross gen launch titles tend to score higher historically. I’d say saving Halo Infinite for the launch breaks tradition because they need to start on the right foot this time more then ever. 

Halo infinite will definetly sell better than 5. Mostly because of it being of 3 platforms and being a launch title. Sais nothing about it potential quality. It's definetly still a big franchise but framchises need a brake. Ms should really give their studios a little creative brake and let them make some passion project. Their ips will get a brake and they might pick some tips along the way. 

Your stance has been clear fornanyone to see. Double standarts are easy to see. Would I have time I would dig up old post showing your goalpost moving. 

The fact that it will be on 3 platforms can certainly mean more sales for the game, but will also mean less push for the new hw.

and the discussion here is exactly on the HW sales. So it make your argument worse for being in multiple platforms.
