Is this his personal website? What's the point, he's just advertising the X1?

That's all he's ever done on his website. I think people need to think twice about buying this though because in my opion they're buying into dead tech that won't matter in the near futute. There's a reason MS has now included Cortana on the XB1 and that's to make sure they can phase out the word Kinect, especially now they've announced Cortana can work with headsets. The new dashboar update has also removed motion control. I see this as a cynical money grab situation just before Kinect becomes totally redundant.

Are they really trying that "limited time promotional" offer again this year??

5 hours since last update:

#10 PS4 Nathan Drake Bundle (up 1)
#21 XB1 Halo Bundle (same)
#22 PS4 Star Wars Bundle (same)*
#23 PS4 Black Ops Bundle (same)*
#58 PS4 Star Wars Standard Bundle (same)*
#61 XB1 Gears Bundle (down 7)
#69 XB1 Madden Bundle (up 5)
#73 XB1 Forza Bundle (up 2)
#86 PS4 Fool's Edition (up 8)
#94 PS4 Destiny Bundle (down 3)
#99 N3DS (down 3)

*Does not affect this month

PS4 - 5 bundles, 5 in the top 100 (plus standalone)
XB1 - 14 bundles, 4 in the top 100

It's looking more and more likely that Sony will have 3 PS4s in the top 20 next month, perhps even four if the Standard Star Wars Bundle also starts selling well.

imo regardless of who win this month,we can all agree that it will be pretty close.I mean,last month we saw a bigger gaps on amazon and yet PS4/Xone gap was smaller than 100k.

Look at the august amazon chart: ps4 was at #15 and #33, xone was  at #40, #85 and  97 (don't count Halo bundle cause it was preordering, not selling). In fact, it is 209k vs 202k. 

September chart, ps4 at #9 and  #73 xone at #56, #92, and #95. 340k vs 281k, according to NPD.

So it seems to me that amazon isn't very good at representing the whole market situation. 



Ps4 winning awe shiet



Amazon is good at predicting who will win. It should not be used to predict sales numbers since we don't have any. A small spacing in the charts could mean a big sales gap and a big spacing in the charts could mean a small sales gap. Vice versa as well. You also have to account retailers might have deals causing consumers to shop there, skewing Amazon sales therefore changing the spacing.

Why is Amazon and Target hiding PS4's price?
