No doubt it will be a hit. But 6-7 million in 2 months is stretching in my humble opinion. I think Destiny actually got way more hype than Halo 5 has. Probably because of Sony/Activision's push for it, Bungie going multiplatform, the pseudo MMO first person RPG angle...

And riding on the coattails' Halo's success.


Lost alot of respect(well, all respect) for Bungie with the content-stripped base version of Destiny only to sell the content as another full priced game a year later...

I could see it happening.

Unfortunately, 343i did themselves no favors with the Halo: MCC debacle. Bungie has done quite a bit to make up for their initial bumbling, so there is definitely hope for 343i to do likewise.

7.3 million in just over 2 months.... On a console that is lagging behind it's main competitor... Whose previous entry did not do nearly as well on the 360 which had a much larger install base(despite universal positive reviews)... After the MCC debacle... With an over priced bundle.... With stiff 3rd party competition(COD, Battlefront, Assassin's Creed, Fallout 4...)...

Is Halo 5 the new Minecraft?


Halo 3 sold more than 6 million on a 15 million install base...

Not saying it is impossible, but Halo 3 was made by Bungie and one month longer in the year(Was released September 25th 2007). Halo 5 comes after the MCC debacle, is not made by Bungie and has a month less in the year.

If it happens I will gladly admit I was wrong. I hope it does well. I admire 343 studio's for sticking to the 60 frames per second rule in this day an age where resolution seems more important than actual content.

FW- 3,600,000

2- 720,000

3- 550,000

4- 600,000

5- 320,000

6- 320,000

7- 280,000

9- 400,000

2015 sales = 7,290,000   

My lowest prediction is 6 million btw,


I just realized that there should be a 10th week because week 9 ends on December 26. The 10th week are days of December 27 to January 2.

My prediction is before the new year.



i predict you'll never have the data to validate or negate your predictions.

I'd say 2.5 million for Halo 5. It's just not what it used to be. At the most 3.2 mil.


Are you joking?


Nope.
