Is Halo dead? Seems like more alive than ever...
"Dead" as in there's an ever growing space of game types, each with its own market share?
Wait Halo is dead?
"Dead" (a word not found in the OP) does not equal "underperformed" (a word found in the OP).
A case can be made that Halo Infinite is not performing as well as Microsoft and 343 expected/wanted, yes.
Counter strike says hello
The exception that proves the rule?
The only thing I can think of as to why Counter Strike is so successful is because it's a far better social experience than the "old style" multiplayer as defined in the OP. I do agree it's certainly on that end of the spectrum though.
