of course it's not.. but losing momemtum to your competitor matters....thus sometimes affecting your sales profit.

Sales profit. Take a minute and consider this. And thi sis just using the most popular pricing scheme.

• XB1 current BOM at least $370
• two third part games in ACU+AC4 bundle means sony gives ubisoft at least $50 for every console sold.
• that brings the cost of that XB1 to $420. Then sell that console for $350  and even $330 for a week. So you are lososing $70-$100 on every console sold.
• And some stores added a gift card to this whole deal.

Thats a heavy price to pay for momentum, especially when their is no guarantee that you even have it. In case you don't know, the real guage of momentum is what happens starting from january.
