Nice subtle trolling. Halo 4 sales are nothing short of amazing and its MP count is still higher then other exclusive console shooters.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

If they didn't need it they would not have made it simple, it's good advertising



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Sorry but that is a fact.

Halo 3 in the same period: > 1 million
Reach: > 200k
Halo 4: 20-30k

Even 343 already said they will work to make the MP better in the next Halo.

Unless you give proof, I don't think anyone will believe you
