Gears/Madden bundles. Plus Best Buy X1/TV deal earlier in the month.
TV ads for Madden... and Xbox didnt win August.

Until dawn moved more consoles? or One Piece? people just prefer the ps4?
Xbox One should have had a shot to win this month, at this point Im not sure what it ll take for MS to win a month.

I predicted the PS4 would win this month... mainly  because it never losses any months but... this month should have been one of those that it could have happend.

A remaster that is primarily popular with core Xbox fans who already own Xbox. Not a game that could attract past gen PS fans, and any XBox fans yet to move to next gen are not likely to be moved by Gears remake.

2nd Madden for the generation, which is also out on past gen consoles. Most people likely to move to Xb one because of Madden probably did so last year. The bundle is a 1TB bundle still at last year's $399 price. It would have shifted more units if it had been $349 because the price would have got more people to switch generations.
