I think I can confidently say that Destiny will have higher numbers than Halo 4 does now. Some of those who clocked in early were probably thinking that it was Bungie who made Halo great and are now preordering Destiny for the Beta. I am not saying that Destiny will have higher numbers than Halo 5 will have, but I do think it will. 
Personally, I am really really excited for this game, but.. 
Do you think that the Destiny population will pass Halo's?
