Sooo.... how exactly does the Xbox One win the month? At what point does a Black Friday victory not matter because Sony is so far ahead. I have bee reading many arguments and folks seem to think that Microsoft is just ensured a Black Friday victory. Even if they win by 200k... does it really matter. At this point, I can't see Microsoft taking November unless we give them an unfair subjective advantage. |
BF is quite a tricky event to this thread.
BF is HUGE on retail stores, so even if PS4 is winning on online stores right now, and end losing BF, the cheer amount ot retail sales can in a single day beat the whole month before it on online stores.
I remember someone posting BF sales of last year and it was like half of more of what NPD claimed for the whole month.
BF can seriously turn things aside, the better price/deal on retail stores can really change things.
Calling it to be in the bag to MS right now, though... completely unreasonable. It may also lose BF.
It'll have to win BF big time like last year, and last year it was cheaper than the PS4 and coming from the price cut effect that had been already big the whole month, so it's hardly happening like that this year. But it's BF, it's wait and see.

I was that guy: it was 48% for MS, and 52% for Sony (although I'm not 100% certain on the latter).
