The more shocking part is that MS still was able to pull 400 million from this game, those microtransactions sure are making them hefty money from the smaller userbase

I think it's obvious that they just included all HW that week, pretending it was all due to Halo 5, which is complete BS. MS has really gotten shady with their numbers lately. |
i just don't get how they could get to 400 million dollars in one week without the sales of halo 5 being at least in the 2.5 mill range worldwide. Because even if you add in all hardware for the week like you said its tops 250,000 consoles sold, which even if they were all sold at 500 dollars (highly unlikely) would get to 125 million. Controller sales I have no idea but I'd hazard a guess at no more than 200,000 is 12 million and then you have the microtransactions which i believe had a figure of $500,000.
Tell me if i left anything out or my deduction is wrong but thats a total of $138 million lets say so it leaves $262 million dollars. I'm not suggesting thats all sales of the game but it definitely adds up to the game selling more than 900,000 in its main territory.
Time to dig out comments from the Order 1886 sales and flop discussions. That could be very interesting right now.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
There was no way on earth anyone would have thought it was going to be this low.

Halo 4 killed the franchise MP because 343 doesn't know what it's doing.

Something tells me they took a turn into out and out deception. There's no way whatsoever you can fluff up 400 million worth of games and hardware for Halo 5 unless they included everything from the "More Personal Computing" division.
