Anyone knows if majornelson still posts weekly xbox live activity charts it was a nice report but I am not seeing them nowadays anyone having any idea what the matter is.

He hasn't been doing to recently, I'm not sure why though.


Somebody should ask him on twitter oh wait I will do the honours

but other tweetarians should ask to I believe if many people ask the same question he might reply fast.

Price cut+Halo 5 could be a deadly combo :D


Yes  they will be selling around 800-900k on black friday with a price cut of 50-70$ but halo needs to be a great game with all the community feedback implemented.

All the other titles if microsoft advertises them they might be able to become the best selling console this year.

Agreed, Halo 5 will be amazing if they listen to all feedback, So far it looks like they have been doing that on Twitter so looking good so far, If Fable Legends if anything like Fable 1 and lives up to being as good as orginal Fable (Better than 2 and 3 atleast) it should bring in allot off old Fable fans, Fable series has millions of fans but allot are probably being careful about the next Fable so it really needs to be amazing, Remedy have already proven themselves so Quantum Break should push sales if it gets advertised enough, Titanfall already has tons of Hype and Halo 5 doesn't need much to get people excited Lol all will push console sales, Sunset is the only one I'm worried about, It could end up amazing or really bad Lol So far it sounds like it's going to be amazing

Yes you are absolutely right what we have heard from them halo 5 looks promising if fable legends lives upto to the expectations many fable fans will buy xbox I am also uncertain on sunset because previous games from insomaniac are not good but they are a great developer on the other side 



I dont know about XBO outselling PS4 this year. PS4 is cheaper and it is much more popular outside of America. Halo will def give it a boost along with holiday deals and a pretty good lineup, but it would have to drop to $400 and gain a lot of ground in Japan and Europe to come anywhere near PS4 numbers. (Talking strictly about closing the gap during the holidays as i expect PS4 to pretty easily outsell it to that point)




       

Anyone knows what happened to selnor he is not posting nowadays I love his threads and posts
BTW
if anyone watched halo 4 global championship during that they showcased a halo trailer confirming it was halo 5 but why are they not confirming now I am pretty sure about this information if u have time watch that tournament watch it the tournament took place few months

I believe sony might not be ale to cut down the price of ps4 because they are already selling it at a loss USA is pretty big market but microsoft needs to advertise and promote Xbox in asian countries like India, Singapore I live in India and I have never seen an xbox advertisment but a lots of advertisments from sony are displayed microsoft. I think xbox is not so popular in europe because of my less promotion and  higher price. A competitive price and better promotion would give them a advantage because they have tons of exclusives coming

If rare makes a reboot of one of there franchises Xbox would make a bash in market

Idk about Selnor but I love his new posting style and threads, His much more better now and pretty cool to talk to (When I spoke to him on a thread about Halo)

Did they show a Halo trailer at the championship??? I can't remember Lol But I did watch it =P Even I was nervous watching it, I wanted that dude with the glasses to win (I think he had glasses) but the other guy won, Was pretty fun to watch I hope they do more Livestream championships for games especially Halo ones


Yes for what I remember they showed it with a ryse documentary if u have a nice internet connection u can lower the stream quality and watch it on youtube . Match was definetely intense and who knew there could be a draw and guy without  glasses though i also wantel the guy with glasses to win because I played against it and with him during halo 4 matchmaking he really plays the gaem like a pro style but i manged to kill him 2 or 3 times that was because his shield were already down so my luck lol

lol You're talking about Ola (iGotUrPistola) also known as the wizard. He seems like a really chill dude, I miss his streams. He could've won if he didn't push Ace at the end! Too bad all the Halo pros either moved to CoD and simply stopped playing esports. Here's hoping that H5 brings some of them back

Did he also moved to cod? I hope 343 makes halo 5 better so the real community could come back. Lets hope halo 5 is not rushed because I think 2 years is very less time for making a halo while supporting the previous 343 industries make the classic halo return. can u tell his youtube channel.
