It is spin when, again, you aren't taking into account what happened in the previous year.

When you are discussing sales between two companies between two years you have 3 items in play: Company 1, Company 2, and the Previous Year.

If in the previous year Sony had HUGE game releases in Battlefront and CoD and others as mentioned by others before, that explains them being down YoY.  The fact that you aren't willing to see those as reasons and just touting the success of the XB1, is spin.

If in the previous year the XB1 was doing poorly because it only had the one model that wasn't the XB1S and suddenly it has a new model and is doing better, and you aren't taking that previous year into account as to why it is up YoY then that is spin.

Also, in some of the months that MS did win this year, didn't they have a fire sale on the non-XB1S model in order to make room for their "one" model?

Also, losing by 100k in Nov, while close in the grand scheme, isn't "almost outselling" anything.  That in itself is spin as well.

Spot on but you're wasting your time.
