I'll concede november but hell no, december will be back to the right side



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Well Xbox has a huge chance for this month's NPD. I don't know about December. I truly believe that Sony will hit folks with some holiday bundles to secure the spot.


yeah there gonna hit them with bundles but not the folk in US, the euros will get all the good bundles like they have last gen

 

US shop with there wallet and at a base price of 350 for the console or 350 with 2 AC games the XB1 will be gettin most of the sales no PS4 bundle or stand alone will be below 400

 

MS knew they can beat ps4 even at same price thats why they went below just for the holidays which is unusual for a console to get a 2 month price cut

Interesting pediction. I think you are wrong though. And the XB1 has been cheaper than the PS4 for a while. Sony is also going to have a GTA+TLoU bundle at $399 for NA. Come december..... God knows what else they would have, and I am guessing a lot of these bundle announcements will be made at their december show.

  I ve been reading alot of posts on here and the interwebz lately things about the xb1 passing the WiiU and how sunset overdrive is a flop but what i havent been reading or seeing posted is the huge possibility of the XB1 taking December NPD over the PS4.  since this gen started alot of the pro XB sales fans have switched there focus form XB vs PS to XB vs WiiU no one has yet dared to challenge the PS in a sale battle almost like they have waved the white flag... surrendered well im here to the rescue. 

Unlike sony with there PS3 sales struggle MS has taken huge steps to make a come back remember how long it took sony to get to $299 well MS launched with a $500 console and less than a year later we are at $350.  MS is going all out for Dec you can get a a console and any new holiday game for just a tad over 400, a PS4 only cost 400 the choice for the consumers is clear here.  although MS has taken a few steps back this gen one thing still remains strong the backbone of the XB the brand has always had a traditional strong sales boost during the holidays that started when kenict debuted 4 years ago, this will be seen again this year first with November then again with December

Besides price, best holiday boost, and online superiority MS will have the SW push for Dec. with there big franchise Halo, the MCC collection will have been release, with all the past halo games not just rezed up but fully remastered the effort put into this should defiantly warrant a repaly and fresh experience.  along with halo COD AW will be pushing HW sales this will be the first must have next gen game and MS gets a exclusive bundle with a massive 1TB HDD and special themed console and  dont forget the timed DLC.  next up Is AC and this one has graphic parity for both systems with better FPS on XB1 giving no reason to buy on the competitors console along with a bundle being available for only $350 which gets you a XB1, AC Unity, and last yrs black flag a fantastic AC game.  GTA5 HW sales push will also be in full effect for this month with an already confirmed 1080p that matches the PS4

MS has spoken with the $50 cut, Halo MCC, multiple bundles, and November NPD win the choice is clear for Dec. the choice is XB1


Whoa its December already??  Can you point me to the November NPD thread?


Hes just getting cocky and assuming. It's funny how 14 days of sales can skyrocket the confidence in XB1. Reminds me of the 2 months after MK8 was released for the WiiU. not to mention the sales are already slowing as according to the latest Amazon hourly updated charts.

I think it will be close, mostly because a large amount Americans consider price over value, quality, performance, and in general just about everything.

That said, I could believe that MS played their cards to early. Sony has exclusive marketing for GTAV, Far Cry 4, and an full on Exclusive in LBP3. Word of mouth on PlayStation Vue should start to stir interest as videos, and leaks start to come from the Beta community. Then they have the PlayStation Experience in early December, and I think they will be going full out on 2015 content, teasing 2016 content, and possibly talking new firmware features.

Obviously Microsoft will not take it lying down, but I do see things becoming difficult once Sony starts their push.

Of course, the X1 will win in December. The November momentum will carry them till the end of the year!

You guys need to have faith in the box with the green X logo. :3

I see PS4's being sold out a lot in December so it is very likely that XBO has a great chance to outsell it as there will be more stock available.

definitely globally it would be ps4 all the way, US would be a tough spot.

EDIT: But remember we have GTA bundle coming up. Things could go other way.
