Spencer: "The battle is really September, October, November, and December."

"They beat us in June. They beat us in May," Spencer added. "These months are small if you look at the sales. I think the whole month of June is about one week in November. They're winning, and they'll do their PR around it, and that makes sense. The battle is really September, October, November, and December."

But they also beat you in January, February, March, April, and will also likely beat you in July. Not to mention the near dominance of PS4 outside US. Of course the sales volume for the second half is larger than the first half but based on what evidence can we suggest any change of course in favor of xb1?

The kinect has been shred, the price has been dropped, all malicious policies have been left out, most ps4-esque features have been implemented, several pressing exclusives have been released but ps4 is still wining in the home territory. I believe "catching up in homeland" will be the more appropriate word rather than winning, especially when the top ps4 exclusives are about to be released in the last quarter of 2014.

 

As I had said numerous times already, XB1 can only hope to sell half as much worldwide and 45% versus PS4 55% market share in US, and that's being optimistic. That's not magic just logical statistics and sound estimate.
