There hasn't been much going on for Xbox this year. Last holiday season it sold well and there was some excellent game releases. I'm excited to see what kind of effect the X will have on sales. I'll be buing one for sure.

The Xbox One X should result in an uptick in sales for the short term.
However, if it is anything like the Playstation 4 Pro, then expect 1 in 5 consoles to be the Xbox One X. Maybe even 1 in 6/7 as it's priced higher.

 Literally, if you own a decent PC, all bets are off. The only reason to own a XB1 at that point is if you're simply infatuated with the logo. :/

Disagree.
Not everyone actually cares about exclusives.

Why would you get an Xbox One over a PS4, you get less games, and the games you do get (multiplats) are objectively worse on that system.

That is what the Xbox One X intends to rectify. It will be the best place for multiplats outside of a PC.

Microsoft does need to fix it's exclusive dilemma, having another big hitter like Halo 3 which was a console seller would help a crap ton too.

 

While you may be right that not everyone cares for exclusives (also I think it's just an apology atm...you'd sing a different song if XBox actually had any) I just don't see why anyone who isn't rich or a true MS fanboy would buy that thing, let alone preorder it, when Sony is obviously already preparing the PS5?! Plus MS will be forced to get the price down to 400 max really soon after release (in a year's time, mark my words).

if there were signs that MS was indeed upping their questionable support, but how it is...why would I want to support that attitude?! They are about to abandon their third console early...in a row!
