To be fair, only one of those models will affect October. Still, I think it will be somewhat close, but the PS4 is going to win Oct. It'll be the first full month of a $299 PS4. Sony will be ramping up advertising as we start getting closer to the holidays and will most likely have more bundles for every taste. Hope they put out a Knack/R&C bundle for younger kids. VR could also cause a slight boost.
Now, November is going to be a bloodbath. Even if MS slightly wins Sept and Oct, November is going to make up for every XBO win this year. We'll have the COD marketing + bundles and the strong possibility of a $249 BF SKU, which will fly off shelves. More importantly, we have the Pro launch, which obviously is going to be bringing in 250K+ all by itself, with 500K+ being likely if preorders keep up like they have, and 750K+ not being impossible. Wouldn't be at all surprised if the PS4 pulls off 1.8M+ in Nov, with XBO probably repeating last year's 1.3M, possibly slightly less.

I think that last year Halo's launch made the Xbox One outsell the PS4 by over 40k. If the Xbox One wins October I don't think that it will be by that much.
