Re: Halo 5 sold less than 1 mil. copies in the U.S

In Response To: Halo 5 sold less than 1 mil. copies in the U.S.? (Gravemind)

: Apparently, it's all but confirmed that, according to the NPD, Halo 5 sold
: less than one million copies in the U.S. in October.

I'm having trouble figuring out how this can be true if this article is accurate.

Global sales for past Halo games have always been mostly North America sales; 60-80% of all sales are here. I don't see any good reason why this would change for Halo 5, so '$400 Million in Global Sales' should correspond to at least 300 million here in North America - how do you generate that much money without selling more than a million copies of the game?
