October for sure, November and December will be hard with Call of Duty and Battlefront.
Depend on the BlackFriday deals.

CoD and Battlefront vs Fallout 4 and Tomb Raider. That's fine with me.

Tomb Raider is likely going to be a non factor this November. Fallout is currently (on Amazon.com) selling more on PS4 and has been since its reveal, CoD is the other way around, time will tell what bundles will do to change that.
The holidays in he US this year will come down to how much prices will be cut (especially by Sony), outside of Halo 5 the exclusives will be largely irrelevant.

One example is not enough to completely disregard Amazon as an indicator, there have been many cases where Amazon has been right as well for example for games like the Witcher 3 or MKX. I'm not saying it's 100% accurate but it's an indicator worth not ignoring.
Besides the Fallout 4 situation looks the same at Gamestop and Walmart:
