Yeah but with Gears AND and the XB1s release AND the Holiday coming up I can't see it being down or flat. That would not be good at all if you ask me.

I know Gears is not as big as Halo but with the Gears bundle, The XB1s release, The XB1s FIFA and Madden bundles AND the holidays it should be up without question. Anything other than that would(again imo) not be good at all.

Holidays can't be a reason. If you exclude the games or the price, This October is just like the last october, nothing change.

And the others bundle in the end i don't think are really that important.

 

Basically i think the main 2 reasons of XBO be up YOY are those two:

- Gears (with the Slim bundle)

- And Battlefield 1 (which could have a bundle too)

 

others than this doesn't matter at all. I think XBO should be close to last years numbers in all Oct-Nov-Dec, with October be a bit down and Nov/Dec a bit up. If it's up in November and December, is fine if in October is down, just look at PS4 in 2015.

That makes sense about the Holidays but I don't know man...anything other than it being up will not be good imo. I guess it would not be bad....but it won't be good in my eyes if that makes sense lol.

Side note I am also with you all...Halo is Halo after all. But I am a Gears for life type of guy....more so Gears 1 than the other but still Gears all the way for me lol.
