I think you're the one who need a dose of reality. :p I fail to see why people's opinion of Sony having this month in the bag seems so bizarre to you. It's not a strange opinion at all when you consider current statistics. Of course, the month isn't over yet, and anything can happen, but it's a very plausible outcome. Comparing it to last month's claims doesn't make much sense. While some were claiming that Sony had it in the bag in October, it really wasn't as clear-cut as some were thinking, because they were both pretty close. The Halo 5 pre-orders definitely helped the Xbox One. November is a completely different animal. Sony has been dominating the charts so far this month, while having September and October pre-orders of the limited edition SWBF bundle, and October pre-orders of the standard SWBF bundle and COD bundle added to this month, greatly increasing its lead. In order for Microsoft to overcome this lead and win the month, they wouldn't just have to win Black Friday, but to completely crush Sony on Black Friday, which doesn't seem likely, considering they don't have the major price advantage they had last year. With all that mind, predicting that Sony has it in the bag, doesn't seem like a farfetched opinion. By the way, you haven't said anything useful in this thread so far, except for saying incredibly odd things and ignoring facts. There's nothing wrong with having a different opinion, but at least base it on some factual sales data, because after all, this is a sales thread. |
Well stated. Agree on all fronts.
