From those amazon rankings no way, battlefront is above Halo 5 and it's out AFTER Halo 5.

The Halo 5 bundle wasn't doing very much before this month, either.  I think it was only mid-late last month it even entered the Top 100.  I remember looking a month before that and it was in the 1,000s.


IMO it says a lot that the LE and CE for Halo 5 are still available. I think that Halo will sell tons, but at the same time i dont think it will meet expectations.

A slim possibility they could win, but i'm still predicting PS4.

It entered the top 100 the last day of September. 

Damn, that's worse than I thought.  Usually Halo bundles would have been in the Top 100 months before launch.  This time it was just shy of a month before launch that it entered.  MS really only has themselves to blame, though, since they tried to charge a premium for the bundle, instead of just $399, or AT MAX $449.

It´s not a bundle its a special edition, $150 more expensive than the standard model, $100 more than every other bundle with a launch game and 1Tb HDD.

We should be surprised it´s trending on Amazon and GameStop charts.

And at the end it might be a limited edition as last year white Sunset Overdrive was. There is basic no real value to the special edition other than the skin.



Pricecut > Any game.

Except if we were in japan, with a exclusive dragon quest.
