Starwars bundle(s) and the Black Ops bundle... have been selling pretty darn good all month.
November is pretty much in the bag for PS4.

So, here is the deal. If Sony wins October, wow. But if it wins October and November, or even just November, then the console war is officially over and I can't personally wait to see how the NX vs Ps4 plays out.

2016  Xbox one needs to pull off some kinda miracle to stay competitive with the ps4.

They might be able to do it, but its going to be a much harder battle than 2015 was.

you are forgetting about black friday. the biggest week in the entire year in the USA. an MS bundle leaked, Gears bundle + Fallout 4 + extra controller for 299$. that will sell a SHIT TON. it depends on how Sony counter. but the deciding factor Nov will be black friday.

Black Friday won't matter because PS4 will sell crazy numbers all month at regular price.MS will be losing prfit either way and they have tons of stock to clear.

I'm not sure about that. We've had two months of preorders for Black Ops and Star Wars bundles. whilst the Black Ops bundle didn't do as well as the Star Wars bundle for the first month, both are now doing extremely well this month. Then there will be a surge for both come release month. Sony will also have something for Black friday, but imagine what would happen if Sony decided to put Fallout 4 in with their biggest bundles? A TLOUR + Until Dawn + Nathan Drake + Driveclub bundle for Black Friday would probably keep the XB1 at bay and even if it didn't outsell the XB1 on Black friday, the accumulative sales througout the month + preorders would more than make up for it and give Sony the win (IMO)



 

The PS5 Exists.

I'm pretty sure X1 will win BF. Whether that gives it Nov or not will depend on what the BF gap will be because PS4 will undoubtedly win the rest of the month.

Btw yesterday someone mentioned deals not being too different among retailers, that's not true, Walmart had a Gears bundle + free Halo 5 + free controller which is obviously better than anything Amazon ever did

Who the fuck would buy anything electronic from Walmart?

$399 Destiny bundle returns. That is one resilient SKU
