• MS has a chance for September, though I think its slim now that sony is shifting old PS4 content to make way for slim.
• Oct should be sony's based on VR and buzz, I expect the slim to start pulling its weight as original PS4 stock takes over
• November has to be Sony's right, with the Pro pre-orders, not sure how MS can outsell them there.
• December, I still think thats Sony's because people will be wanting pro's.

So overall I think MS has a chance to win 1 or 2 months, but would expect that to be very close (i.e like that one month where MS won by 7k), and then Sony just kicks ass as the pro comes out, so no way will MS 2016 sales for the year beat Sony.

 

About the underlined ...

The PS4 has been in the lead for most of this month with three SKUs: PS4/PS4s/PS4p. The price drop of the COD bundle has simply moved the traffic from a direct split to one that's heavily favouring the cheaper console. Once the cheaper console is sold out then the Slim will rise again. The fact the COD bundle has now risen has absolutly no baring on the final result, it was already in the bag.

Read that in a quiet, peaceful voice with no animosity attached.

I fully expect Sony to win every month this year, but there is always a chance ms could do something :D

There is still time left in the month for crazy offers to happen, especially if things are only 10-20k difference (though that gets less likely as we move towards xmas I think). I think Sony will win it, but that doesnt necessarily mean it will, I dont know what crazy stuff MS will do).
