It was kinect that launched in 2010 and that gave xb 360 a huge push in the second half which probably will be the moment  when xb1 start falling behind

What if xbox one has tricks up their sleeves? They are holding on to the third best selling game in the world right now that they can use any time. You have to remember that xbox one can go dirt cheap in the next few years (less than $200) because consoles were more relativley stronger at that time compare to now. However, the BIGGEST thing is the fact that unlike lastgen, Microsoft had competition their first year. So all that consider, xbox one is doing better. 

It might have something up thier sleeves but looking at it right now, xb1 is going to fall behind xb360.  xb360 best years were at the second half due to kinect(helped capture some casual gamers) not to mention xb360 managed to grab a lot of marketshare on Europe something that xb1 is failing to do.  ps4 has around 70-90%marketshare in most european countries.  Also xb1 will be lucky to hit 35m in america considering both are eating each other marketshare unlike last gen. 

Again, xbox one is outpacing the xbox 360 as of now. Everyone thought xbox one wouldn't be able to do it and now look at them. There were people on this very site who didn't even think it would outsell the Wii U. Knowing microsoft they will buy out games/make games and such to keep the momentum up.  The other thing is most of those small european countries don't mean shit to major publishers/developers. Only North America and the UK means anything to them. Europe as a whole don't buy more games than North America. When you eliminate UK, it is a lot smaller.
