Nope I don't really think it failed hard that is just your opinion it seems Forza 6, Halo 5 and Gears in the same year is good I don't think thats ever happen before. But in my opinion next year will be better starting with Quantum Break which is a day one buy for me and of course Gears 4. I will decide whether I get Crackdown 3.

I don't think you understand X1 sales did increase from last year, there was even someone here who believe it was overtracked by 200K but it wasn't the case. 

 

No I'm pretty sure they failed because their objective with this slogan and literally every other slogan etc are to sell consoles. I'm 100% sure they expected the Xbox One to be higher than 5% YoY for the month of November. They expected consumers to buy the Xbox One because it would have the "best lineup in xbox history". I'm actually not sure why anyone would think didn't fail when you say you have the best lineup in xbox history with JUST a 5% increase YoY. And I'm pretty sure you're forgetting Microsoft also launched their biggest game, Halo and that's all it did....5%. It is a failure.

Also, I didn't say the Xbox didn't increase from last year, I said it was almost flat YoY, meaning it was barely an increase, ie 5%. Just for comparison PS4 was up 85% YoY for November. 

No it's not, it did well even with tough competition, still %5 is still an increase regardless.
