I cant understand why anybody would think XBO would be massively up this year.
VGC numbers
2014-7.9m
2015-8.6m
2016-8.4m
2017-8.4m
4 years of relatively stable sales followed by a huge boost in the 5th year? Not likely.
360 had a really big jump in its 5th year but that was due to Kinect which attracted a new casual audience that was not previously on 360.
The new X model appeals to hardcore gamers and tech enthusiasts at its price of $499 and that will remain true even with a price cut to $399.
The safest bet for sales this year would be to continue selling in the same range it has the last 4 years.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
