The upcoming X1 price cut will make it match the PS4 sales in the US

Once you've had a big dose of humility, I'm hoping you stop making threads like this. You seem to think Sony will just sit there and let MS have all the sales. Have you considered the GTA5 bundle or is that not part of your assessment? And do you think that the LBP3 bundle won't have any effect whatsoever, baring in mind that it broadens the demographic rather than just narrowing it.

MS are making exactly the same mistake they make every generation. They're targeting FPS fans, which is why games outside of that genre will always struggle to sell on the XB1. In the mean time, Sony are broadening that demographic, which is why a variety of games sell well on the PS4 (and sold well on previous consoles). It's not about hitting COD/GTA numbers, it's about offering a variety of games and opening up the platform for more interesting titles.

The XB1 just might close the gap slightly in these next two months but next year Sony will sell more yet again, as they always have. It's all well and good winning when you're dropping your price and giving away free games, but that's not sustainable in the long run and those shareholders will start getting vocal again.

 

Look at previous generations, LBP didn't sell 1/10 of what Call of duty or Halo did on X360

what makes you think LBP3 will?

CoD is one of the biggest franchises ever.

LBP - 5.54m

Halo 3 - 11.95m

Best selling Halo vs best selling LittleBigPlanet. You have strange way of doing math if you see a 10 to 1 discrepancy here.
