I think the main factor is it's an entire new story arc with new characters, When Gears 3 came out it was the climax to the story and it was the game everyone just had to buy day one where as with Gears 4 it's all new it's gotta build up that excitement for the series again for Gears 5 release to make people think I need to get this as soon as I can but I think Gears 4 will have some good legs because of the reasons above as people hear good things and want to get back into the series after that it's up to Microsoft to get the story hyped for 5,
I still feel that Gears 4 is definitely close to a 50% digital which would give us 900k-1m sales in October for the US.
