Nov is definitely getting interesting. There was a post on Gaf where the member said the PS4 has started to overtake the XBO in sales for the week in his district.  And by quite a bit.  The PS4 seems to be remaining on top on Amazon hourly, while the XBO Unity Bundle is starting to slowly fall, like the other XBO bundles did. And the PS4 Destiny Bundle is hanging above the next XBO SKU on the list.

Like I said before, the PS4 has remained above the XBO on Wal-Mart and Gamestop all month. And on both sites, it seems the PS4 has moved up a few spots, while the XBO has dropped a few. On Wal-mart, the PS4 has 5 SKUs (#1, #9, #10, #16, and #18) in the Top 20 (when just looking at PS4 and XBO items), while XBO has 3 (#2, #4, and #12.)

MS hardly has this month on lock. If Sony pulls off a victory in Nov, as well, it will be quite devastating for MS, considering how much profit they are sacrificing this month and next just to try and beat the PS4.

Exactly. Microsoft is playing their cards way too early while Sony is just sitting back letting the PS4 sell itself.


And then there's cyber Monday :Dhttp://pinoytutorial.com/techtorial/walmart-cyber-monday-2014-ps4-littlebigplanet-3-bundle-3ds-xl-console-and-ps4-games/

That's a pretty good bundle. It will be interesting if the more expensive PS4 bundles can go up against the super cheap XBO.

Only if price does not matter to any of the buyers.  THose buyers would have bought the PS4 anyway.

It is the best deal... what MS have to counter attack?

What is big than PS4 + GTAV + TLOUS at $399?

Are you upset?

Amazon has now updated November showing the first 2 weeks. X1 #10 and PS4 #15. The rest of the bundles are way down at around #50 or lower. Sunset Overdrive out of the top 100. Just shows you MS were bullshitting when they gave us the whole massive demand and sold out lark. They shipped very few of them to begin with so they'd 100% sell out and they could get some good PR out of it.

Yea and they paid everyone off.

Globally in the USA? Possible and likely enough. Not granted yet, as Master Chief was big, but not as some people hoped, and XBOne US mid-November lead is less than 200k.

How were they bullshitting about the SO bundle?  It did sell out and it was limited.  It's going for over 100 bucks over it's retail right now.  If anything I have no idea why MS didn't make more?

Are you still insisting GTA V will push consoles???

Two resmasters, one 6 months old won´t make that much difference.

As I said before, BF is about cost not "value". Many people go for the lower cost, not the best value.

Of corse there will be some player looking to save a few bucks on that bundle. However imagine an aunt, uncle, or grampa wanting to buy a christmass present to a 10 years old boy.

They will buy the cheapest one.

That is because I belive PS360 will have a sales spike next week. And even the WiiU will have a great week.

It'll definitely push consoles, also there is the LBP 3 + Lego Batman 3 bundle for families with young children. Considering how well the stand alone PS4 sku is doing still at launch price with all the available XB1 bundles i think these two bundles will be huge sellers.
