Forums - Sales - Where are Halo MCC and Battlefield Hardline in the top 30 preorders?

BF3 and BF4 are such awful, awful games. When you compare them to 2, 2142, and BC2, DICE / EA pretty much successfully killed the quality of the series when they switched their focus to attempting to beat CoD in sales, instead of making actual fun, finished, and memorable BF games.

You're very wrong in your second statement. Halo 2, which is the focus of the collection hasn't been played by all Xbox One owners. And even if they have its a great enough game to want again. MCC was a top seller in June for retailers yet VGChartz omits it from the list. My real concern lies with the fact that they took Halo 5 out of the list completely a couple months ago when it had 55k pre-orders. A month before E3.


Only halo fans have an X1 and only halo fans will buy the collection.Fact.

Says the guy that never played it...

halo 4 had the greatest single player of any of the halo games.  Gameplay was also among the best halo has ever had.  343 is more than capable of taking over the halo franchise.

Since I'm not a multiplayer guy (other than splitscreen coop) I only judge the games based on single player and Halo 4 is by far the best one, it simply expands the storyline in so many exciting ways.



Ok this has to be nipped in the bud now.

Halo MCC is not being hyped up to sell millions like a mainline Halo would. It is hyped by the vocal minority and Halo fans for its fan service. It will do great as far as remakes go but it is not expected to sell like a mainline Halo title.

Please do not confuse our being pleased with the game with expectations for it to sell gangbusters or "save" the X1.

My personal prediction: 2 million+ like Halo CEA or Halo Wars. Spinoffs and remakes of Halo fall within the 2 million mark.



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

Well I like to be wrong but I am placing my estimate on the X1's year 1 install base, which will cut its legs no matter how we slice it. If they bundle it for a couple years going forward it may just reach that milestone. 2 million at the least, where it goes from there depends on bundles.
