Wow, last year's holiday sales really inflated people's expectations too high. The US market has been on a slight decline for years now, last year just happened to have a confluence of majorly anticipated games hit with both systems' first drop to that ever-important $299 price point. A drop to $249 just isn't as significant a factor, and combined with the sheer glut of shooters now flooding the market and the decline of certain important franchises (COD, for example) there just wasn't the same push as last year. These results, if true, were basically in line with my expectations. In fact, I expected the Xbox to perhaps pull ahead by a bit, just because of the sole Slim bundle being the Uncharted bundle, and find it ridiculous that people are somehow spinning this month as a "loss" for the ps4. Sony does not need the US in order to dominate worldwide, and yet it still finds itself in the pole position there with a bundle of their own game instead of having to pay EA for hundreds of thousands of copies of theirs. In no way is that a negative.
