Same here, but the Best Buy and GameStop trade in promos might put a kink in that.

And even if ps4 does somehow manage to win October, it most likely won't be by much at all. The real challenge will be next month and December. And if we see similar offers like the one from dell this Black Friday, I'm starting to feel Xbox will take it again. 

 

Preorders for the Star Wars and Black Ops bundle have been consistanly high and Sony will have deals to match the XB1 deals for Black Friday. November is an easy win for PS4 as far as I'm concerned. The PS4 has a big lead before we even enter the month.

Have you noticed how the XB1 monthly strategy is a microcosm of the yearly strategy? Nothing for the first 3/4 and then go all out in the last 1/4. Halo this month, Black Friday next month.

My guess is that's when the biggest possible amount of pr happens and Microsoft wants to look good in the press since ps4 beats them all year in sales. 

But yea, the cod and Star Wars bundles should cancel out any Black Friday deals Microsoft has and with all the pre orders from last month and this month and the next.
