Its too early to count Sony out this November. They are our gaming saviors and will continue to lead us to greatness this gen. Next year will only continue to show why Sony is dominating this gen. Sony has truly blessed us this gen and should thank them. Bless you Sony, Amen:)

I don't think it deserves anything but it will be interesting to see the results for November. Sony doesn't have to do anything to stay competitive but they still have plenty of time to announce their deals. Way too early to count them out

Looking at what Sony (hasn't) announced for this month so far, I think Sony is banking on Black Friday and GTA V/Far Cry 4/LittleBigPlanet 3 week. It'll be interesting to see how the 2nd half of November will turn out.

Dragon Age, Far Cry 4, LBP3, and GTAV will definitely move consoles. I will expect a couple of bundle announcements soon as well. Sony is in no way in bad shape for PS4 sales, should be interesting.

Yeah, those games will definitely help the PS4 considering Sony has exclusive marketing for Far Cry 4 and I assume for GTA V, too. Sony is just very tricky to make out right now. I'm not sure if Sony is being too complacent or being shark in the water, waiting to make its strike.

Sony tends to wait til a week or two before black Friday to announce any deals or bundles so there is still plenty of time. Hell they could be monitoring just to see how they do when their competition makes huge moves like this. Not like they have to worry about their sales, they're still selling great.

X1 could easily outsell PS4 for all we know, but to call it deserved is a little odd... No costumer own any company a sale, the company have to battle for it and conquer, MS is doing it rigth now.

Have any of the people claiming MS deserves it because of the price, content or how much it is costing MS ever been saying PS3 deserved to sale better than Wii and X360 together because Sony was losing U$200,00 per console for quite some time?

It looks like I was right. XB1 is winning in USA right now as I expected it to.


i really would like to know, if the multiplats gtaV and far cry 4 will have an impact for the ps4 in the second half of november.
co-marketing, yes. but heavy hardware bumps?

 

still no bundles from sony. not even the lbp3 one :O so maybe only retailer promotions for ps4 this holiday. no sony loove.

Doesn't matter. What matters is profits and losses. The Xbox doesn't "deserve" anything. Nor does the PS4 or Wii U or NES, or SNES, or Wii, or PS2, or Xbox 360, you gettin' my point here? We, as consumers, are the only ones who should feel deservant.

I thought it was a thread from toastboy ;p

Well Xbox One is not the only one that's gonna have bundles, if that black friday rumoured bundle with PS4, The last of us and GTA V for 399$ is true X1's gonna get ass raped.

The OP made some sense, even though the deserving part is off.

that retailer bundles is true. but we wont see any real bundle from sony for the us. its already to late

And I still don't know anyone who wants it in the US and I still won't buy one.What are these exclusives you speak of? A fake inFamous, wannabe GT that is rehashed and a collection of old generic FPS franchise? The US has never been Xbox territory since Nintendo dominated them last gen and Sony is back to dominating the US.
