Xone will be for sure ahead of X360 and year and year it must be not to hard for Xone to do....X360 did 8 million in its second year(?), I am not expecting Xone doing worse in its second year..

I think XB1 will sell much more next year than it did this year but the gap in sales between 360 and XB1 will shrink due to Halo 3 being released in the second year of 360.

And Halo 5 releases second year of One

It won't have the same impact as a large part of the Halo fanbase is already on the XB1 due to Halo: MCC.

Considering Xbox One is already about 3 million ahead (probably be more by the end of the year) it may not even need to have as big an impact as Halo 3 did.

Well XB1 also got its first major exclusive sim racing game (Forza Motorsport 2) which already has its fans on XB1.

Wasn't this exact thing said about MCC though? And Halo 4....and Halo Reach?

I don't ever recall Forza ever being a big system seller for Xbox.

Don't worry as soon as the holidays are over we'll go back to the doom threads

UK loves it, it was part of the reason for Xbox to have won 5 consecutive weeks. Contrary to US, One is about the same price as ps4.

To counter, the 360 already had Gears, which is yet to come on ONE.

But these are all red herrings.  The ONE will be healthily ahead of the 360 this time next year.

Yeah you're right if Gears 4 comes out next year XB1 will increase the lead. Quantum Break could be a wild card too.

Anyways even without all of these I think XB1 will maintain a lead over 360 no matter how big or small.
