You actually denieing that Halo is a bigger franchise than PS franchises? Honestly think about it for a minute. No goal post moving. Halo earns a crap ton more than anything on PS.

No, I'm saying you're moving the goal post because it went from direct popularity(which is determined almost entirely by sales) to "but but ... x franchise made more money! and ha! Sony didn't!"
Considering Halo is a much more multiplayer centric series than Uncharted, and considering it heavily uses a microtransaction system(which Uncharted also uses ... but Uncharted isn't played for it's multiplayer as much as Halo) so it makes sense they'd make a lot of money off the game, more so than Uncharted. Does that lead to more popularity? Honestly ... not at all, in fact it barely correlates.
This whole "but but Halo is more popular than Sony franchises" thing was a good point back in the 360 era. Now? I don't think so. Halo 5 most likely sold between 5.5-6.5 mil so far. That's not impressive at all for a Halo game. Considering the digital attach rate for Horizon is insane, it will probably catch up with Halo 5 by the end of this year. And that's a new IP. Uncharted 4 undoubtedly outsold it. The Uncharted collection outsold Halo MCC, so did The Last of Us Remastered. Is Halo 5 still more popular than most sony franchises? Yeah. Is that impressive? No. If we were just to compare big PS4 exclusives to big Xbox One exclusives, the PS4 ones would sell better. When I see the Playstation market I see a consistent rise in popularity. Gorilla Games wasn't getting a huge increase in install base for their games, so they moved to an entirely new franchise. A new franchise that will probably sell 6 mil by the end of the year. Uncharted 4 outsold Halo 5 by a wide margin. It's honestly hard to compare the two when most of Sony's big games are still not out yet ... both Sony and Microsoft pretty much have two or three big triple A exclusives out.
