I also meant fourth quater. Aside from halo 5, we know nothing else that will boost sales for the x1. While the ps4 has no "big exclusive", it has many regular exclusive, and exclusive marketing for many games, including COD wich is bigger than halo in the US and starwars, wich I dont like myslef, never did, But I recognise that is a life style to some. When that ps4 limited edition starwars bundle hits, I think the most that it will atract is tha casuals who just watched that movie. It has the potential of being much bigger than halo.

And for the deal and pricecut, you keep thnking it will be hte same as last year, we dont know that, we might as well actually see some competition in the deals for thhis holliday. So I really cant agree with x1 has 4th Q on lockdown.

You do know of other things, you guys just refuse to account for them. As I've said before, Microsoft is adding backwards compatibility, has a years exclusivity of Rise of the Tomb Raider, Forza, Gears and a fifty dollar price differential while offering 90% the same library.

The price cut helps. It won black friday for Microsoft last year. Keep acting like it doesnt matter. That plus multiple exclusives ontop of a top selling exclusive shooter will win the west. History has proven that correct before. Culturally speaking, it wont be wrong. The last Halo was the third hightest selling Halo of all time, which means the sales are consistent for Halo. Theres no point in denying that Halo wont give the Xbox One a huge holiday boost in sales.

You keep ignoring my points and I know its not my writing skills making it hard. So Im going to ask you as directly as I possibly can.

1) Do you think that sony will not have any deals this holliday, like last year?

2) I know its all speculation, but what would be the efects of a ps4 pricecut? Is a ps4 pricecut out of the question this year?

3) Will the limited edition darth vader ps4 have no effect on sales this holliday?

4) Ass you already saw the minimum effects forza 6 is having on sales, the minimun effect gears and rare had last month, Do you honestly think ROTTR will have massive impact?

5) How many halo fans d you think have already bought an x1? Do you think that number will have any effect for the new console buyers when halo 5 hits?

I know MS has a lot of good thiings going for them this Q, everyone knows they will do good, but it is you who keeps ignoring everything else the ps4 has this Q and the main thing is all the Jap exclusives, the third party marketing and hardware advantage. The X1 might wing the US this Q, sure, its the safe bet. But the ps4 wont go down without a fight and the victory wont be anything major, it will do nothing on the gap already at hand. A lot closer than last year Ill just say.
