Microsoft won black friday and won November and December in the states with a fifty dollar price drop and some multiple bundles (including the Sunset Overdrive special edition bundle which was limited). Sony might have won the war, but losing in the states is a huge victory for Microsoft. People from outside don't underestimate the value of the states, but would rather keep it hush about how much value the sales of one country can bring to the table when it comes to purchases. With Halo 5 dropping soon, it should penetrate Europe by some 2 to 3 million. Thats all Microsoft really needs right now.


I thought that Sony was winning in the US as well. Do you really believe that microsoft could sell 3 million consoles in Europe this year? Based on VGchartz data which may be very inaccurate, Microsoft managed to sell 660.000 units so far (without August numbers). They need more than Halo 5 to achieve that.   

Halo will definitely win fourth quarter in the states this year. I believe they will win over the world sales in the last two months since Halo drops in October 27th.
