So a good few games in feb and one game in june. What about the other 4 months? whats suposed to improve the x1 above 50k in the other 4 moonth dry spell? And whos to say theres anything right after E3, wich I donth there is anything untill the hollidays for the x1. While all the whiyle sony will be pumping at least 3 more games evenly spread out. So im seeing 2 good months then at least 6 months with nothing and the x1 droping below 50k, even 40k. |
Momentum. Its the same reason Wii U still hasn't dropped to pre MK8 levels. Its the same reason PS4 went without major release in between march and june yet still sustained a very strong baseline. The Xbox is in a superior position to what it was in the summer, Year 2 sales are always higher- theres no reason to think Xbox is in risk of falling off the map with sub 50k sales.
Jan: Dying Light+ post holiday momentum.
Feb: WItcher 3/Evolve- 2 potentially huge release, both likely to be pushed by MS based on previous E3's. The biggest releases of that month and none are available on 360/PS3. That will push hardware no doubt
March: Battlefield Hardline- obviously a big release
Q2 is quite an unknown quantity but is looking like it will Arkham Dark Knight, Fable Legends, Mortal Kombat X. Obviously theres only so much we can know this far in advance but its looking strong.
