Many of your reasons were also used against Halo 4, and look how well that sold.
I think Halo 5 will end up selling 9m copies. So there will be a slight decline but nothing significant.


Just out of curiosity what do you think XB1's Lifetime sales will be? The first Halo on 360 sold 12m at the height of the series and 360 ended up selling over 80 million units. 

I think the X1 will end up selling 65m units lifetime.

No worries here the MP seemed really good from what I played. So far all the halo campaigns have had that "epic" feeling to them that you just don't get in other games. Also they announced that Halo 5 will by far get the most post launch support, So looking forward to what they build towards over the next couple of years after launch.

lol if you guys worry on sales rather then quality then that's kind of weird to me, you playing games for the fun, and even if they selling less it's not like MS will stop making Halo games unlike third party games (Japanese games) or even if they have small community online they still considered a lot. I am not worry even though it's hard for me to enjoy Halo. Honestly if this games is not good for some then it doesn't mean it will be bad for the rest, they will just creating another possibility with other user and gamer to expand their user base. Halo is the last ACE card for MS so I think they will not mess this up.

(I've only played the multiplayer on MCC on my one and non of the previous version)
I wasn't blow away by the MP beta, but than again
I'm not great at FPS....am getting better though. My only complain is it felt to much like a COD game....the fast movements and speed burst weren't needed as much imo. But I'm sure the main Halo crowd will run out to get this game and since its Xbox's only truly big (Forza isn't really huge, nor is Tomb Raider) I'm sure most with a One will buy it. I'm buying it for the story mainly.

I was playing Halo 1 online before XBL was even a THING. I was a die hard vet and logged in hundreds of hours between Halo 1 and Reach. I use to love it but when Bungie left, Halo left as well for me. Halo 4 didn't sound, feel or play like the original Bungie games and while some may like it more... I did not.

To me, Halo is now like Guns N Roses. It's just a name... a brand.

Halo 3 actually sold 15 million. Go to its wiki page. Also I think the xbox one will sell 70 million lifetime (of course that means till its discontinued).

After how 343 killed Halo Reach with their shitty playlist managing, and the horrible Halo 4.... Halo is dead to me. I just don't see how people can be excited for 5.


"how 343 killed Halo Reach" Hilarious

You didn't/don't think H4 played like Halo Reach?

No, I didn't. The music as well. I never realized how much Marty O'donnell's talents meant to that series until he wasn't there anymore. To me, Halo 4 felt like a game that another studio made in an attempt to mimic the Halo franchise (which was infact, what happened). It just didn't feel right.
