I predict that VGC overtracked the XBO by at least 200k. There's just no way it did as well as it did last November.

It had a new Halo, Fallout, and StarWars this year. I could see it doing better.

One relative failure and two multiplats. Even with the $300 price point, it's exceedingly unlikely that X1 can match 2014's Nov/Dec sales.

Why? Because we have had pretty good indications from the Amazon/Best Buy/Gamestop sales charts. Even Amazon's results for October make sense when you factor in preorders, which put it over the hump by the necessary +30k margin.

Also, X1 had a decided price/value advantage last year that wasn't there this year vs the competition.
