Two exclusives on Xbox one(Forza 3 and Gears 4) can easily explain why there would be less sales of the Xbox one version.  But, nevertheless not sure why they would even make that statement was anyone expecting the Xbox one version to outsell PS4 in any of the regions(Doubt it!). 

Yeah that doesn't help that MS released most of its games at the holidays.  By the way I don't expect the xb1 versions to beat ps4 version but I do expect similar sales in US and UK depending of the genre.

I don't think Sony ever intended to not have any major first party release during holidays. All of the first party game have missed their Holidays release windows. 

In 2014 - The order: 1886; 2015- Uncharted 4 & 2016: The Last Guardian(moved to December 2016) & Horizon Zero Dawn all of these game were intended to be big holiday titles that were pushed back to insure quality.

It's great for third partry and did not hurt sales of PS4, but probably resulted in less sales for Sony Interactive Ent. especially in North America were Holidays spending is so great.
