I've always wondered this with every next gen launch game, and this includes Halo etc..
Like it's great to have an amazing big budget game at launch but how are they able to recoup their loss/make a lot of money if the installs base is completely new? That's why I always thought cross gen games (for current and new gen) for launch made sense to me and understood why it could also be a reason Halo was intended for cross gen for launch.
I think the only issue is that Sony should've said that these games were going to be cross gen from the start rather than giving the impression they were all next gen exclusives. Personally it wouldn't have mattered for me I will get these games for next gen regardless if they're coming out this gen.
