343 Industries Will No Longer Make Halo Games, But Will Oversee Outside Development - Report(Rumor)

[MeachTheMonster]

What are the 5?

TLOU, TLOULB, TLOUR, TLOURR, TLOU2,

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

No we don’t.

Don’t need individual game sales.

343i has sold at least 35+ million copies of Halo total.

Yea, we do. It's not like the Bungie titles would have stopped selling during that void/transition period, which is why we need individual numbers for the actual 343i games. Remember, you made a specific claim, so we're going to need exact numbers for each entry.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

How many copies has Halo 4 sold?
Halo 5?
Halo Infinite?
We have detailed numbers made available for the individual Halo games sold when Bungie was making them released directly by Microsoft. We don't have those numbers for any of the 343i games. The closest we have is someone at 343 saying Halo 5 sold over 5 million. Beyond that we know nothing.

Don’t fukkin matter.

343i leading the franchise has sold 35+ million Halo games.

That’s the number.

Wait is Meach actually trying to spin things positively for 343 and Halo: Infinite????

That starts in 2012

Nobody was buying old ass Halo games in 2012

TLOU, TLOULB, TLOUR, TLOURR, TLOU2,

Lol convenient of you to count Left Behind now but ok, 5 games at 37 million

Vs the complete franchise of Halo (12+ games) selling an additional 35 million, since 343 took over. The Last of Us is still ahead

 

[MeachTheMonster]

This is once again y’all trying to obfuscate reality to fit your narrative.

343i has sold More copies of Halo than ND has of TLOU in the same amount of time. Those are the facts

 

[Instant Classic]

Let be real here if 343 Halo games sold a lot then Microsoft would've celebrated the milestone. I'll cut them some slack on sales because you can't really sell many copies if your game is on the Xbox One. However, if the games sold as well as TLOU then I don't think Microsoft would cut 95 jobs. They obviously saw writing on the wall that the franchise is doomed and 343 hasn't delivered a commercial hit for them because if they did they would say the numbers. I love the franchise, but it's obvious people in charge like Bonnie, Kiki, and Phil don't know what they're doing which is why every 343 Halo game has been messy.

Now we moved it to 12 games


Infinite sales are not included in the 35. I’m sure they are at least at 40+ right now.

They literally did.

Halo Hits 81 Million Copies Sold Ahead Of Halo Infinite's Release

The Halo franchise is a juggernaut that will only grow bigger when Halo Infinite launches in December.

Y’all just ignore it. Or find ways to discredit it

The “95” layoffs is an exaggeration as lots of them were contractors who were gonna be let go anyway. All games do this. Once the game releases the team gets smaller. As development starts to get back serious they hire more people.

Biggest changes at 343i was management that fumbled recent deadlines and plans.

That’s the number.

We can't even define what constitutes a sale. Are the individual components of the MCC made available part of a sold copy? Are the mobile downloads of a free to play game counted?

That article strongly implies they both asked for a game by game breakdown and were rebuffed from getting one. If those numbers looked good you'd easily get them. They're more than eager to obfuscate the sales of the individual games and instead give you some dollar amount spent. It's like a chick taking pictures in her bathroom mirror for social media she's gonna use every trick in the book to get the most flattering ones and the rest will never be seen.

Not even sure why he’s trying to compare halo, a 22 year old franchise to TLOU a 10 year old franchise. Halo is supposed to be what represents Xbox and Microsoft gaming, its supposed to be their Mario.

TLOU while critically lauded is still just one of many of Sonys premiere franchises, its not even the only 30+ million franchise from Naughty Dog. It kind of proves how much Halo as a franchise has fallen off since 343 took over when they are being outsold by stuff like TLOU, GoW, Spider-Man, Horizon, etc.

I see you love making claims that you can't support.

Stop it. You are just playing dumb to run away from reality.

There are no FTP games included in that number.

35 million is 35 million.

So that’s what we rolling with.

A significant portion of Halo games sold between 2012 and 2022 were games released 2010 and earlier?

And you say i’m the one making claims i can’t support.

Y’all nikkas are absolutely ridiculous
