Too bad it does nothing to cover up the fact that Halo 5 flopped both critically and commercially.
haha nice try,,
I never hyped halo, gears of war, or any xbox franchise in general.
or you can search through my entire post history to see that.. do you want to bet on that?
The only xbox franchise I play is forza, and I am a forza fanboy.. oh wait aren't you the one in denial about DC and GT flopping spectacularly? (covers up with teh graphics comparison)
TL;DR: I don't care about graphics now that it's GT! graphics don't matter! gameplay matters! GT: the true driving simulator! who cares about AI? who cares about damage? who cares about PS2 car models and PS1 animations and sound? who cares about rain on windshield? nobody cares!

TL;DR cows calling this gen's highest rated sim/open world game a flop while holding Driveclub and GT to be GOTY titles and forza killers when they got crushed by forza.
Again, let's hold a bet, since you seem to be calling me a lem.
I will stop posting if you find a single post about me hyping halo, xbox NPD, or dudebro Gears of war.
Will you stop posting if you find no post against me?
as usual the deflecting poster does not show us where I hyped halo or where I'm a lem..
shall I also ask @Shewgenja@misterpmedia on what they think of me and whether I have ever hyped halo, NPD, or white-knighted about the xbox one in general?
Halo 5 you moron. They only count Halo 5 hard copy sales for the month of Oct and it released on the 27th and re-orders exist for ALLLLL games El Tormented. NPD Oct showed just exactly what H5 did, dominated sales period.
Who cares what other games did El Tormented because nothing beat H5 in Oct and that's all that matters. The only joke here is YOU. Trying to spin what you and your dumbass bovine friends said wouldn't happen, MS winning Oct sales. It happened so eat your crow loser. I'm done talking to you. Your head is permanently stuck up Sony's ass. When you can be objective with anything regarding MS then perhaps I'll continue a conversation with you but don't hold your breath.
BTW didn't read past the 3rd line. You're such a joke.
No you are the MORON when you prebuy a game on amazon,gamestop or any store that sale isn't account until the game release why because in most cases you won't be even charge until the game comes out you,al you have is a secure copy that is all,in fact all you need is $5 dollars on gamespot to buy Halo 5 on september,so yes all those pre sells dones on September count on launch is like that with all games not just Halo.
It showed that sold way below previous Halo less than half of what Halo 3 sold on day 1 just like it was the case for UK 150k vs 370k that Halo 3 sold is not even freaking close the drop is abysmal more than 50% of the sales GONE.
Oh wow is incredible like that is something new halo always make a big splash on launch dude where the fu* have you being is the reason it is not news that it was on top spot but that sold not even 1 million on NPD because traditionaly Halo sell more than 1 million specially in US there is not spin it is confirmed now MS $400 milion were unist shipped to stores MS shipped $400 worth of halo 5 merchandice and act as if they were sold to consumer reality is even doubling those NPD sales they don't reach $400 million and there is no freaking way in hell halo sold half as good outside US as it did on US.
Is the same crap they did on launch when they shipped 1 milion accounted them as sold and the reality was that stores were packed with them..lol
Wow MS won early this year a month without Halo by 13k this one by 25 it should tell you how halo is meaningless if it was huge it would have pull at least Destiny numbers like the PS4 did.
Hell ACU deal last holiday eclipse those Halo numbers.

Floppity flop, Flopza did flop. Didn't even chart, not even lems are buying that rehashed garbage. More people play Driveclub than Flopza 6 lol.
Stop hiding behind Flopza's poor sales and admit Floplo also flopped too. The sooner you admit this fact the less you'll spend time crying in this thread.

It's a flop, get over it. We use GS scores around here and it flopped here lol.
No one gives a shit about it in the real world otherwise it would have charted. I bet GT Sport outsells all the Flopza games on Xbone in its first week lol, now that's a game people actually care about. Take your rehashed flop and GTFO this thread. This is an NPD thread, nobody gives a crap about a flop like Flopza around here. It had it's time and it flopped hard and failed to chart.

LMFAO cows continue to hype GT rehash with 80% PS2 cars, dumb AI, broken online, shitty damage, screen tearing, 30fps drops, PS1 animation and sounds..
oh wait who am I kidding?
the same cows hyped driveclub to be forza killer and then hyped A and it still flopped..
Link to were it say next GT will use 80% PS2 models.
And GT has being 60FPS for quite some time,and unlike Forza 4 on 360 and Forza 5 on xbox it had since the PS3 dynamic weather and night races..lol Hell does Forza 6 even have dynamic night races oh wait nothing about Forza 6 is dynamic is all baked crap on a next gen consoles..lol
Maybe next gen they can catch GT6 on PS3 and have all dynamic..lol

Wow.. the PS4 lost NPD in Oct? I didn't see that one coming. Even with the PS4 price cut, it still lost?
Might had something to do with Halo 5 topping the charts. Only sold for 5 days in October though. Ouch. http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/11/12/the-best-selling-games-for-october-announced
November will be interesting when all the casual gamers flock to the stores on Black Friday
It barely loss by 25k while having its biggest franchice release,to put things into perspective for you Destiny moved 500k PS4 and double the xbox one sales that month even that it was a multiplatform that it was being given free by MS and that bundle was $500 vs the XBO $399 destiny free and still the xbox one loss 256k vs 500+k now that is something.
There are several things this launch prove.
1-The $400 million crap and biggest launch parate was a hoax,it was MS shipped to retailers number in dollars nothing more,even doubling NPD numbers you don't get $400 milions.
2-Halo 5 is the lowest selling Halo ever after after Halo CE,not even cleaning 1 million in NPD.
Halo 2 earned $125 million in first-day sales, breaking records for first-day earnings of any entertainment release, including the biggest Hollywood blockbusters. In other words, The Matrix got nothing on Master Chief.
The frenzy for one of the biggest console releases in videogame history moved 2.4 million units in the U.S. and Canada. Says Microsoft's Peter Moore: "The first 24 hours of Halo 2 sales have taken our breath away."
2.4 million in US and canada alone which is what NPD covers,more than double Halo 5 numbers.
Halo 3 sold even more than Halo 2 and made 177 million on the first day not first 4 in the first DAY that is close to 3 million copies sold.
Halo 4 did 220 million and more than 3 million copies sold on launch.
Halo 5 some how did $400 million which is double basically of Halo 4,but didn't sold in NPD even half of what Halo 2 sold.? Hell sold a 3rd of what Halo 4 sold and they make $400 millions.? I wonder were are all sites questioning MS skewed math and magic numbers we have confirmantion now that Halo sold less than half of what other halo sold on US and UK it is safe to say it was shipped hardware to store what they quantify as dollars worth and act as they sold it to consumers is down right pathetic and missleading and like i say to create a false sense of hype that wasn't there.
And no dude Halo 5 has being on sale since september and those sales are accounted on launch so no it wasn't 4 days.
as usual the deflecting poster does not show us where I hyped halo or where I'm a lem..

makes sense, because if we use GS scores, forza isn't actually a flop and it has crushed GT and DC, get over it LOL
The only thing I'm understanding is that the XB1 won Oct. No matter how you try to spin it. I'm curious to see if this can continue through the rest of the year.

The fact that you are arguing about Forza which FLOPPED here and didn't even chart on NPD says it all,i hope the next one does everything dynamic even if it is at 720p i would prefer that to baked effects and pathetic graphics to achieve 108p 60FPS.
GT6 has higher score than Forza 5 on meta when GT7 comes out compare it to Forza 6.lol

2. I said GT6 has 30fps frame drops, not 30fps framerate..
3. GT6 was downgraded from GT5, and had really bad shadows etc..
4. never denied that forza had baked weather, the xbox is weak-ass (and probably turn 10 are lazy?) but can you find me a racing game on the PS4 that holds locked 60fps in rain with 24 car races with full mechanical damage?

At least learn to read before Accusing others LOL
also, I challenge you to search through my post history and see if I have hyped ANY xbox franchise other than forza.. I am basically a forza fanboy but I am not an xbox fanboy..
so show me proof where I hyped the xbox or stop posting..
@tormentos: The only reason I came on this NPD thread is because some person said that GT was far better.. lol
I can spin facts too.
forza 4 was a last gen game and it outscored GT6..
forza 5 was a launch next-gen title.. wake me up when GT makes launch title mostly free of glitches..
lol so now you use the metagame for GT6 being better than forza 5 but then you use gamespot scores as a reason for forza flopping...
if we take metacritic then forza is the highest rated sim/open world game this gen..
if we take GS then forza is still better than GT6 and DC..
so choose your poision.
oh, so? If I was a lem/alt wouldn't I have supported the xbox in at least one post? why would I not be supporting the xbox? This is why I'm asking you to search through my ENTIRE post history to see if I have supported the xbox/PS4 and ans shilled for it's franchises apart from forza..
again, you have to prove me on..
1. how I am a lem and which franchises I have white-knighted..
Wait a minute, what about attach rates? Wasn't it announced that Forza 5 had around a 30% attach rate when it was new? And Microsoft came out and said Halo 5 has the highest attach rate of any first party exclusive. So if that's the case, then wouldn't the sales number for Halo 5 be more like 4 million? It would also better fit the $400,000,000 figure too wouldn't it?

NPD doesn't show that it show not even 1 million retail is much bigger than digital still so even adding 30% digital 1,221,500 not even close 400 millions worse 935 include bundles which would mean even less sales,since that copy is not charge for is $349 with halo.
The number don't add up in any way.

Ok? Go.
Fact is Forza 4 is a 2011 game GT6 is a 2013 game in fact it came 1 month after Forza 5 so if anything it would be compare to Forza 5 not to a game release 2 years before that.
Forza flopped every where Forza 5 flopped outside and not here,Forza 4 has 90+ Forza 5 79,Forza 6 87%.
Both failed to keep the series over its 90 average on xbox 360 and og xbox.
Forza 5 and 6 are not open world in any way,and saying it is the highest rated this gen mean little when the series USE to be 90+ and now is not any more much like Halo isn't any more a 90 series.
Just because you pretend to be something else doesn't mean you are,your arguments about Forza basically sold you out,you have no history here you have few months on this place dude.
You are white knighting Forza on a sales thread which mostly is focus on halo and xbox one.
Lemm.

Yeah sure chose the worse one under rain,hell can even Forza 4 run higher than 720p.? In that alone already GT5 and 6 are doing more,worse GT does weather and night to day racing in dynamic FORM something not even Forza 6 does on xbox one which is suppose to be a next gen game,using crappy graphics to achieve 1080p and 60FPS is pathetic even with baked rain.
No the xbox 360 could not do that in fact Turn 10 admit frames were king for Forza 4 and that weather and day to night would have hit performance even at 720p let alone at higher resolution as the one GT runs on PS4 which is higher than 720p by the way.

Microsoft probably shipped 5 mill to retail, which is how they got the 30+% attach rate (13 million LTD for Xbox ONE). Until NPD, Microsoft probably didn't know how much they have sold to consumers, but they have still made a profit on the units they shipped to retailers.
Retailers are absolutely furious with the Halo 5 flop and will cut down on Halo 6 orders.
@tormentos: is there a link to the actual numbers of Halo 5 copies sold somewhere? All I've seen is the official release which states it sold the most of all the games last month. Just no overall number. Where is this 1 million coming from?
@NathanDrakeSwag: I'm smart enough to know that you'd need some way to objectively measure what is "abysmal", rather than just throwing around the word because you want to bag an a good game. It's quite sad.
If you could enlighten us all on your objective measuring scale, it would be much appreciated.

You seemed to have missed the part where he said "for a halo game".
He was speaking in relative terms, not absolute terms.
@lundy86_4: wait, people are going off of what some person said on a gaming forum and passing it as fact and official???? Is there some sort of official number released out there?
