I think it will do more damage than some people want to admit. Between that and watchdogs, the people who do not just buy consoles to be buying them will have one less reason to do so. It will also make the X1 look better because now its launch line up is even more impressive.
As someone with no brand loyalty, if I was going to get either one. it would be the X1 at this point

Yes of course some people will cancel their pre-orders, that will happen (in fact every week there is someone suggesting they are dropping one in favour of another), but dont confuse what a few people on the internet will do with what many will do. These are what I call "Floaters" they got dragged into the hype and are the most likely to drop or change consoles, but their numbers are small. Some may delay their purchase till next year, but as there is already a long wait for the PS4, others will just move up in the line. I think Sony will consider it a victory if they are selling 2:1 more than Xbox, and leading in the USA.

Stock shortages of either console will have way more impact on people buying another console than driveclub imho. As it gets closer to Xmas and the consoles launch, people get into the hype and feel they have to get involved. Having no stock of either console could push people to the other console.
