Just because a thread has a certain title doesn't mean all statements are going to be completley about it because you have to address other people.  Just like how you're doing it now you hypocrite.

And your source comes from gaf... lol because they're always 100 percent right. There an industry analyst that says Halo 5 digital sales are around 50 percent of total sales as well.

Yeap... looks how Patcher was always right.

You know VGC adjust their US data based in GAF leakers, no?


I thought we didn't track digital unless its sku, no? And don't we readjust when we get NPD or more reputable sources, no?

We suspect ioi have NPD access, but nothing is certain... and Aquamarine and creamsugar were 100% spot on for NPD. Who is more reputable for US sales than NPD?

We add digital sales on bundles and that is it.

VGC uses the retail leaked part... and they use GAF leakers because the NPD data is leaked by GAF and 90% of cases there is no other reputable source.


So you agree it isn't 100 percent. Glad you admitted you're wrong.

So you're saying according to some people are telling me that Microsoft released them xbox halo 5 digital sales as well. Right...

I seen some earlier posts saying Halo 5 flopped. How did it flop exactly? Did people expect it to hit 3 million+? Not even COD on xbox one did that first week. I just don't understand people sometimes.

Anyone saying flop is just spreading FUD and nonsense.

It sold less than previous entries, for many reasons. Most people want to compare it to Halo 3, which had marketing so huge you could buy it at 7-11. Strangely the people expecting it to sell the most and the people most disappointed by its sales numbers seem to mostly be people who don't even game on the platform. It's very similar to Titanfall, where it needed to sell 24 million copies to appease these people on the Internets. Otherwise, flop and total failure.

It's a good game, but the franchise has never been CoD big.

Sticking to my prediction that both sell over 1 million and PS4 wins the month. Wii U maybe a little above 300k.

Have a certain title and topic, and you are very out of it.

No the sources come from NPD.

That joke of analyst that have even less credibility than Patcher and that you wasted a very big thread on it and never accepted the reality


Yes, because Halo 5 totally flopped eventhough it made Microsoft over 400 million dollars in revenue and sold more than any AAA retail exclusive this gen when comparing weeks. Right...

You are the only one talking about flopping and still off-topic.

the 400M is uncertain how much is on SW and it's talking about shipped numbers more likely. And it may as well be the biggest seller on FW with 1.7M I didn't chek the database to see if there was a bigger release. But what is your point? This thread is still about NPD. If you want to talk about Halo5 open another of your dozen of Halo threads.

Can't wait to see by how much Xbox One is overtracked and PS4 undertracked.
Can we expect PS Vita sales too this time?

That was the claim a retailer told on UK. And where did I said MS released digital to them? If you want to only talk about supositions we may as well consider that any game sold 99% digital. But why do you keep bringing the same off-topic things?

lol

So what are you doing here if you don't believe the numbers leaked? This thread will be moved by GAF leaked numbers like every month.



This is going to be interesting now that we have VGC numbers again.



Signature goes here!

Just to see the clowns in this circus do what they do best. Dance and perform for my amusement. Then, about a few months later we will rectract these data and adjust it accordingly to what Sony and Microsoft says. Too much fun on a bun.
