Absolutely insane that that was a tweet from 13 months ago. It's gets worse with each passing day 😂
To be fair things change in the industry within a days notice, guy just reports news etc don't see why all the hate but give Sony feral fanboys credibility, both are bad as each other.

He's just a smol bean blogger who never hurt anyone.
 
This would be the best move for the game.

As long as cross play is enabled, the game is pretty dead on PC and Xbox, with a PS5 release will come a bit of an update also.

I doubt PS players buy this in any significant amount.

Having access to all the good Halo games, remastered and all that glorious Halo MP is a pretty sweet deal.

And you know there'll be a 2025 update that brings a host of new features.

I think it would sell reasonably well, enough to get the MP numbers up for a steady flow of games would be great.
 
Why is that?
Because it's from a bygone era and people just aren't interested in it anymore. Single player fps don't sell much and for multiplayer, you got tons of other options with an established fanbase and/or competitive scene.

Not seeing it. It will do alright for the first week, but then people will quickly lose interest.

Why? Most people I know with PS5 are ex 360 owners. We're waiting for it to be announced and released so we can go back to Halo 2/3 MP and actually try out Halo CE MP.

There are millions of other PS5 owners in the same boat.

Shit, my immediate friend group has already pre ordered Gears and are now doing the where halo monkey gif.

Explain the success of the Oblivion remake or the RE2-4 Remakes...

It's old, dated graphics.

Even the latest MCC runs at 4K120. That would be assuming they port over MCC rather than remaking/remastering Halo CE.

Yeah but it looks dated in 4K.
Someday I will get around to finishing it on Steam.

A new game? Maybe.
 
Complete non-sequitur.

LOL, how?

You said the game is old and from a bygone era, so I gave examples of old games remastered or remade from that same era, but because you don't have a response it's a non-sequitur?

LOL... what is happening to debate today?
 
Halo MCC would sell an easy 5 million copies I bet.
Don't think so. A collection of old games from 10 years ago isn't selling 5M copies anywhere.

Halo 1-4 bread and butter was the multiplayer. The campaigns were just okay, and people ain't abandoning COD, Fortnite, or Apex to dedicate their time to Halo. The single-player isn't good enough and the multiplayer isn't popular or attractive enough for the current landscape.
 
MCC is NOT coming to the PS5. I'd bet my house on it.

If it was, it would been announced ages ago. I said I had doubts last year. People said I was wrong, but it turns out I do know my shit.

I rest my case

No, the franchise is old and from a bygone era, not just "the game" because it's a collection of 5 games. Oblivion remastered did well because of the strength of the TES brand mainly carried by Skyrim that sold over 50M copies by now and still sees daily peak counts of 30K players despite being almost 14 years old. The RE brand is the strongest it has ever been. Halo is at its weakest.

Riddle me this, what would sell more between a new TES games or a new Halo game? By what factor?

That's why it's a non-sequitur. The success of other franchises with strong brand power right now has nothing to do with Halo.

You're gonna "both sides" Jizz's tweet? Really?

Show me one time where any Sony fanboy is more wrong than Jez was in that tweet. He said "copium" seriously and was wrong ffs.

Have you never heard of Colt Eastwood?

Who is the Sony equivalent of Colt Eastwood?

Skyrim came out in 2011... lol.... 14 years ago, but you think it's relevant?

Halo MCC came out originally in 2014...

My claim isn't that Halo is currently more popular than Elder Scrolls. We haven't really seen how popular Halo is because we haven't gotten a mainline Halo game on a popular platform since Halo 4 in 2012, but we know that Halo MCC had more than 10 million players on PC alone.

It's obvious you're trying to downplay what Halo going to PS5 means.

Considering TES VI is one of the most anticipated games right now, yes. Do you seriously think TES VI wouldn't destroy everything in the sales charts? Why is that? Oh, yeah, Skyrim! Next you're going to tell us how The Witcher 3 is irrelevant because it's 10 years old. The TES series has brand power. Halo does not.

My claim is that Halo in this day and age is an irrelevant franchise. 10M players means jack. It's Game Pass numbers.

Again with the PlayStation victimhood. I'm saying Halo is insignificant, regardless of platform. I don't care whether or not it's going to PS5. Halo is a weak brand and its heyday is long gone. That's why I don't think porting it to PS a decade later will do much for the games. PS players care even less about Halo than Xbox players.

I say that I am not claiming that Halo is a bigger brand than TES and you respond with, TES is a bigger brand than Halo...

Congrats on that argument you're having with yourself...

Even on GP, your argument is no one cares to play this because it is old.

You probably believe this to a degree, but if this game sells big on PS5, you won't say anything, you'll disappear like you always do.

You pretended Skyrim is irrelevant because it's 14 years old. I responded by saying it isn't despite being this old. Why is the TES brand so strong? You can't agree that the brand has power all the while claiming Skyrim is irrelevant.

No, that was Mr. Moose. I said it's from a bygone era and people are no longer interested in the style of game Halo is.

Dude, you're the guy always coming to the defense of the PlayStation brand like a white knight. I don't fucking care. If it does big numbers, good for it. I don't think it will because Halo is no longer relevant to the current gaming landscape, unlike Resident Evil or Elder Scrolls. It will garner some interest the first week because of the novelty, but then will quickly fall into irrelevance, just like Halo Infinite.

When did I "disappear" from anything? You're such an insufferable clown.

My point isn't that Skyrim is irrelevant, my point was that your argument that something is irrelevant because it is old but not as old as the thing you're calling relevant doesn't make sense.

No, that was Mr. Moose. I said it's from a bygone era and people are no longer interested in the style of game Halo is.

And why are 10 million playing on PC then?

I've been critical of every brand under the sun. Saying Halo is going to do well on PlayStation is not defending PlayStation, lol. It's acknowledging that the userbase is going to buy the game.

I'm less interested in how well Halo does and more interested in how you've made your argument.

Do you think Silent Hill is bigger than Halo? The Silent Hill 2 remake sold 2 million copies on PC and PS5 alone, likely driven largely by PS5 sales. How many units exactly do you think Halo CE would do on PS5?

When the fuck did I claim old = irrelevant? Do you even read what you're saying? Mr. Moose said that, not me.

Because it's from a bygone era and people just aren't interested in it anymore. Single player fps don't sell much and for multiplayer, you got tons of other options with an established fanbase and/or competitive scene.

This was my initial post. It's not Halo is irrelevant because it's old. It's Halo is irrelevant because it's from a bygone era and people aren't interested anymore. I then mentioned COD and Fortnite as examples of games people gravitate to for multiplayer now.
And why are 10 million playing on PC then?
10M players most definitely aren't playing on PC. If you mean "10M players reached" a few years ago when it was still a novelty, sure, but this means jackshit for copies sold, player retention, or actual popularity. Forza Horizon 5, a damn racing game, did 10M players in 1 week. MCC took like a year and a half to reach 10M.
I've been critical of every brand under the sun. Saying Halo is going to do well on PlayStation is not defending PlayStation, lol. It's acknowledging that the userbase is going to buy the game.
That's not the point. I said that I don't think PS players will buy the game, and you took it as a slight against PlayStation and came to its defense.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if MCC sold even less than Silent Hill 2 remake because the remake was a new and simultaneous release on PC and PS5. Halo MCC is a port that already came out on Xbox and PC and will then come to PS much later. Furthermore, very few horror games offer the polish and quality of Silent Hill 2, whereas Halo still has to compete with a myriad of competitive shooters that left it in the dust years ago.
 
Look at FH5 and Sea of Thieves sales and stop this nonsense about MCC potential market power.

It will sell gangbusters thanks to new audience, coop and out of pure spite alone. Even I will double-dip for Halo gunplay with DualSense features.

Microsoft won't announce the sales numbers, so what is that supposed to be for?

  • We'll be able to track its relative position on PSN against other games in which we know sales figures for
  • We'll be able to see where it falls on circana and European charts as well
I do like how you immediately thought you could say something without being held accountable for it...

What the fuck do you think this is? You're deranged man. I'm saying I don't think the game will do significant numbers on PS and you take this as some sort of personal attack. Get help or piss off.

There's nothing personal. I have no idea who you are.

You couch things in the vein of console wars which is why you think me claiming halo will sell on ps5 is a defense of the ps5... as if games don't sell well on the PS5, so I have to defend it lol. I don't need to defend anything.

If anything it's a defense of Halo, but that doesn't work for your argument here.

We won't get numbers, but we'll know how well it will sell. It'll be a top performer on Circana and you'll have no leg to stand on.

You're saying shit just to say it, it's not sound analysis and that's what I'm pointing out. It has nothing to do with you personally, your argument is just terribly weak. That's what this is about making a sound analysis.

You can make a sound analysis and still be wrong. You can make a weak argument and be right. At the end of the day, no one knows exactly how many units this will sell, we don't even know what this game will look like, whether it'll be a port, remaster, or remake, but you've taken none of that into account here. You just made an extremely strange blanket statement that is almost certainly going to be wrong and I can't wait to point that out.

Why? What makes ages ago so important? The PS base continues to get bigger and will easily pull away in the upcoming months as more and more xbox loyalists jump ship.

In fact I'd argue the 25th anniversary makes too much sense.
 
Halo should be on PlayStation and other consoles that can run it well to be honest, I still believe xbox going full third party publisher is the way forward. The Halo Anniversary special should go all out to adding best possible life to this style of shooter in today's market. Halo has been far to messed about as it is to attempt anything differently.

Jez the KFC family bucket king should know what's up.

Everything announced by MS is coming to PS5 too, and Phil said some time ago that 'in a five years or so console exclusivities will be a thing of the past'. Halo MCC has sales potential on PS4, so obviously they'll release it for PS5 at some point.

MS is probably giddy about these launches. Nobody was buying/playing on their consoles anyway. Atleast getting those 70% sales cut from Sony.

A few guys on this board could give Colt a run for his money. You included.
