How much of that will be attached to Xb one sales. There will surely be a number of current Xb one owners who will get the Halo LE bundle, because its Halo and they must have the special bundle. But Many Halo fans already have Xb one surely. Halo 5 could boost Xb one sales in the USA by 1 million between launch and 1 January, perhaps? If the PS4 lead isn't over 1 million by the time Halo 5 hits then Xb one can take the lead in the USA. Question is will that be temporary or permanent? Halo 5 is MS's biggest gun for Xb one sales in the USA by a large margin over other IP. The next Halo game won't have the same effect and Gears 4 won't either (because of the significant cross fanbase cross over between Halo and Gears). I don't think a $50 price cut for PS4 is worth it to try to counter Halo 5. They'd be better off doing a $100 price cut next year, when they aren't going up against Xbox's biggest system selling game of the generation. |
I Want be Shor: NO.
There is no way for XBO to Beat PS4 this year in the US. The gap is already 770k, and no, XBO can't Beat PS4 by 800k October to November.
