I'm sorry but even if it skip one year it become a non-yearly IP

So mainline one come every 3 years and spin off or remaster come between to mainline game.Spin off and remaster won't affect Halo 5 sales


So pokemon isnt an annual franchise

It should be every year to be an annual franchise in my opinion.
Any way what i want to say is that only mainline Halo games will affect Halo 5


I agree with the second part, MCC wont effect H5 sales at all.

I mean if their is a spin off in 2016 it won't affect Halo 5 long term sale



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

I'll say 9m. I think it will be the best selling Halo on XB1, and have a similar sales curve to Halo 3, but open to lower sales. While Halo 4 was generally well received, I think a notable portion of the audience was somewhat let down. Additionally, Halo 5 will have a good bit of competition this holiday just from MS published games alone, so I don't think it will sell quite as well as any of the mainline 360 titles.

I have to see the game and some preview first, but judging from " Halo " brand it self it will hold a great sales but i am not sure about outperforming Halo 4 and the previous Halo main series sales on Xbox 360 due to Xbox One current sales.

Your right if you pretend that the other Halo games don't exist.


The main Halo games (not side stories or prequels) have seen releases in 2001, 2004, 2007, 2012 and now, 2015. That's anything BUT yearly. 

Your right, but why is this a response to me when I never said mainline Halo games are yearly?

8M is my guess. Could be more depending on how good it is.

Surely going to be the lowest selling main entry into the series, especially after the average MCC reception. I think 3 million by end of 2015, 5-6 m lifetime.



PS, PS2, Gameboy Advance, PS3, PSP, PS4, Xbox One

If you think it's only going to do 60-70% of Halo 5's total sales (8-9m lifetime) that's only between 5.4-6.3 million lifetime for Uncharted 4.

The franchise has seen growth with each installment on the PS3 and Uncharted 3 is at 6.6m right now. I'd say, unless the game falls below expectations, it should reach over 7m lifetime so at least 75%-80% of Halo5.

Well, Uncharted 4 is releasing on a smaller userbase compared to to 2 and 3, so it's not entirely unbelievable that it could fall within that range. 

 

PS3 was at 26 million units sold when Uncharted 2 came out, PS4 will be well over 30 million by this October. Uncharted 4 will definitely be releasing on a bigger install base than when Uncharted 2 was released.

With PS4's much faster sales compared to PS3, Uncharted 4 looking like the best in the series so far and the overall growth of the series it's very much likely that Uncharted 4 will sell between 8 and 10 million units, maybe even topping 10 million.

 

Halo is a series that seems to be on the decline, the beta did quite a bit of damage, the changes to the games multiplayer formula don't seem to be very well received among die-hard fans of the series. People have already had a lot of the COD AW, Titanfall style movement in FPS games. I don't think Halo 5 will be a game to move systems, so it will likely be a game that the existing install base will lap up, because exclusives are pretty lacking in 2015 on XB1.

I can't remember if I've commented in this thread before, but I don't think Halo 5 will sell more than 8 million, like I say largely due to XB1 lacking exclusives this year.

Halo is the biggest Microsoft IP it will always boost Xbox console by a lot just like Gran Turismo and Mario
