At least they are up from November, but overall disappointing in comparison to my predictions.

It is great sales actually. 

Well NPD has USA sales over 200k according to these early reports. Vgchartz has its USA sales at 290k

So while it might be over tracked I wouldn't day by heaps. It could actually be pretty close.

Why do I get the feeling MS are using world wide numbers and Digital to beat out US games physical numbers in their PR. I'm fairly sure that without doing that Destiny taken King, The Witcher 3,, MGS5 and Batman replace whatever their PR kicks out by technicality. There comes a time when you don't believe a word after so many lies and half truths.

I know in business and politics, it is commonly said that the truth matters far less than the perception of the truth. I have some shocking news for you politicians and Corporate guys.

it's already confirmed, that the pr is correct and halo 5 is in the top 12 for december npd and top 13 for 2015 npd

I do find MS PR spin quite funny but what do you expect them to do. Technically they aren't lying but extracting the positives from data available, no matter how tedious the facts they come up with are. They are losing to the PS4 so it's hard to give out nice clean data that Sony are able to do.

There are a few times that MS have given out data to mislead by wording it carefully to sound like one thing but mean another (Halo launch PR), that's what I don't agree with.

@Janedoe I really doubt it with Halo 5. I am betting the game they are using as a benchmark is Gears of War remastered, and they are using bundle numbers and digital in a battle against Physical releases.
