They certainly have the lineup to do it. But, as other people pointed out, are they going to be able to duplicate the compelling deals of last year. Halo will give them a real chance but people may come to expect unbelievable deals that MS may not be able to match with last year. I think when all is said and done they will pull it off but it is going to be a tall order as they performed phenomenally last year.
I am also very curious to see how Sony does. I have never been a fan of their holiday strategy and would like to see them step up their game in that regard. They have the third party marketing rights to make a splash, but do they have the balls to implement some compelling deals of their own.
Should be an interesting holiday season for sure.
