Xbox has Oct. but PS will destroy Nov and Dec.I think Halo is being rushed anyway in order to slow down the onslaught once MS was not able to secure a COD bundle and a BF bundle,which I am sure they tried to.They bet on the wrong horses this generation paying for TitanFall and Tomb Raider.Halo has never sold the Xbox alone and destiny,COD and BF all offer the same experience.Most of their top games are just shooting games except Forza with Scalebound being the only none shooter for the future and that won't sell either.

I really wouldn't be sure about that any more. The first weeks release of Halo straddles both late October and early November, probably in the hope of securing both months, but that could be a mistake. Sony have up until the 27th October to build up a healthy lead before the bog Halo push and then they have Star Wars to guarentee November. It's quite possible that Sony could edge October and easily win November.

You could be right and I also believe that most Halo fans already bought the X1.With the success of Destiny Bungie fans already have their FPS fix too and Halo could have lost some appeal without Bungie at the helm.Same for gears without Epic so we will see.
