NO unless you have a link claiming other wise.

Seems about right and pretty good figures considering Gamestops announcement that Halo 5 sales were a disappointment at launch.

Is Halo 5 Really a Blockbuster? It's Hard to Tell

"...On Monday, the video game retail chain GameStop had a different take. It said the Halo 5 launch had been a disappointment...

GameStop dominates in-store sales of video games, so it’s odd that Microsoft would describe a game as a success at the same time that the chain called it a disappointment...

...The information Microsoft did put out suggests that Halo 5's launch wasn't as successful as the headline of its press release....

...GameStop isn't the only place that sells video games, of course,but it is the one that matters most and, as a result, is a pretty good bellwether for how any one game is doing.

*insert obligatory lol vgchartz comment*

Halo 5 released on the 27th of the month and charted #1 basically everywhere for the entire month....

Sounds like a disappointing launch alright, it only outsold everything and came out with 4 days left in the month...

It was tracked for 5 days and sold 900+k in NPD This is Halo biggest territory by FAR,so you can guess it did like 500k outside US with luck.

Halo 3 sold 2.5 million units in 24 hours and the xbox 360 user base was smaller than the xbox one was when Halo 5 hit,there is no excuses Halo simply isn't what it use to be not sales wise or score wise either,it did good but not like other Halo and is in deed the slowest selling Halo in the main series.

At least if you could read properly the source you cited

American consumers spent $805.9 million on new game-related software and hardware at retailers last month, according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group.

That's the total spent for everything gaming related(games and consoles),not Halo 5 sales.

wow so much crazy wrong info here. anyway 1st off congrats to Sony on uncharted for it's sales and ratings. I don't care much for the game but still there is no denying it's popularity and following.

With that said, we really don't have enough info to even get into this, but lets go off what we do know

1) Halo 5 1st week = 500+ million revenue (includes sales, bundles, and digital copies, and season pass/ micro-transactions) which means no way we can divide that number by anything to get an amount sold. But obviously it's quite a bit. 400 million was in it's first 24 hours

2) VG charts has halo 5 at 3.88 million sold retail, not including digital and bundle sales

3) VG charts has an estimate of 1.46 million retail in sales 1st week retail (not including bundles and digital) in October but that only accounts for 5 days, not a full week as days 6 and 7 were in November

4) VG chartz has no data on UC4 yet

5) Sony said (so should be a reliable number) 2.7 million copies sold for UC4 includes bundles and digital.

All in all both games have done really well and will most likely both top 5 million sold (halo is probably there already when you count digital and bundles but can't confirm) I'm sure both companies are happy with the success of their flagship games

Were there even 13.4 million consoles in the US at the time? If so, are we really going to believe that all of those console owners bought Halo 5? Did we also forget that That number includes hardware sales?

Is Halo 5 Really a Blockbuster? It's Hard to Tell

"...On Monday, the video game retail chain GameStop had a different take. It said the Halo 5 launch had been a disappointment...

GameStop dominates in-store sales of video games, so it’s odd that Microsoft would describe a game as a success at the same time that the chain called it a disappointment...

...The information Microsoft did put out suggests that Halo 5's launch wasn't as successful as the headline of its press release....

...GameStop isn't the only place that sells video games, of course,but it is the one that matters most and, as a result, is a pretty good bellwether for how any one game is doing.

Haha, decided to take a peak into this thread, didn't realize it was about Halo 5 lol.

Again, congrats to UC4 for its success, I'm happy for the real fans.

Now, onto some SW fun.....here's a factoid, Halo 5 made it to the Guinness Book of World records because of its highly successful launch, here is a quote from the news article:

"

Last week’s Halo 5: Live earned a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the most watched video game launch broadcast, setting a precedent with more than 330,000 unique streams on the evening of the broadcast. Additionally, content from the broadcast generated 5.5 million total views throughout the week. This resulted in a spike in digital sales of Halo 5: Guardians, leading to it becoming the best-selling digital game ever in the Xbox Store for an opening week"

@Alucard_Prime:

Not to mention Halo 5 is the game that just keeps on giving.... literally, for free :P.

Hog Wild is Halo 5's sixth free expansion. The other ones were The Battle of Shadow and Light (November), Cartographer's Gift (December), Infinity's Armor (January), Hammer Storm (February), Ghosts of Meridian (April), and Memories of Reach (May).

Try it on crushing, if you haven't. It's a different experience. Also look up the stage fright trophy. It's pretty funny.

@casharmy: It's probably in the realm of 5 million sold, I don't see that as being some crazy figure, that's about what TMCC sold.

Also, don't do sales talk between two different platforms without factoring in user base size and attachment rates, excluding that information is disingenuous.

NO unless you have a link claiming other wise.

the latest and only link we have to any Halo 5 numbers as of April 30 2016

Total Units

North America:2.42m62.3%
+ Europe:1.08m27.9%
+ Japan:0.02m0.6%
+ Rest of the World:0.36m9.2%

Seems about right and pretty good figures considering Gamestops announcement that Halo 5 sales were a disappointment at launch.

Did you actually read this part? On Monday, the video game retail chain GameStop had a different take. It said the Halo 5 launch had been a disappointment, naming it along with Star Wars: Battlefront and Assassin's Creed Syndicate as the splashy games that had fallen short of expectations so far this fall.

EA recently Jan 2016 confirmed Starwars Battlefront sold 12 million. Whos expectations 12 million sales is impressive it does matter if people bought the game elsewhere.

Oh for god sake MS sold 400 million Halo crap to retailers,included bundles,controllers,stickers,anything Halo related which they could group and try to pass it as fu**ing sold to people it was freaking pathetic it sold 900k+ copies on NPD didn't even break a million,considering US is the biggest by far market being generous they sold like 1.5 million or 1.4 in those 5 days,which is terrible compare to other Halo games like Halo 3 which sold 2.4 million units in 24 hours and MS didn't feel the need then to count bundles stickers controllers and ever halo related crap,and they didn't feel the need either to count what they sold to retailers.

The numbers of platforms were account here,even if you account every single xbox one sold on October 2015 as Halo premium bundle still would not come to 400 million even if we assumed that all copies of games as well were special edition version which cost $100 not even that way the math added up to 400 million it was debated here and proven MS over stuffed the channels with Halo shit which was unsold mostly.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RKK11O2/ref=twister_B00RKK4F9U?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

So true is this that Halo 5 special edition copies are being sold on amazon for $39.99 that is the $100 version for less than half the price MS stuffed the channels so bad on october with Halo crap that retailers are giving it away at rotten meat prices now,the normal version is even cheaper $35.

Never would you on mid 2008 find Halo 3 copies even less special editions being sold for less than half the price,hell Halo 3 charted on NPD until January 2008 i think,and on February it almost charted again it loss the 10 spot by like 5k.

Halo 5 didn't chart pass October that bad it was,oh and the xbox one had a bigger user base than the 360 when Halo 3 arrived on 360 to.

Any one who believe MS crap about 400 million is a fool,they sold that to retailers in other words shipped and retailers now are selling Halo 5 special edition for $39 dollars...
