So whats the reason Amazon was wrong in October? I am not trolling or trying to discredit amazon's accuracy record, i just want to know what caused the anomalies for the last couple months

- Gears 4 bundle looks like it isn't tracking
- Many Xbox One bundles vs the Uncharted PS4
- No halo 5/MCC bundle on Amazon
Which leads to Xbox selling better in other stores and with sales been split across many bundles rather than just one that's generally how I see it anyway.

There were bundles specific to bricks and mortar retailers with great trade in deals for the OG XB1 and the Gears bundle didn't receive a ranking on Amazon for some unknown reason so we couldn't get a proper idea of the places. Those two seem to be the major changers.
The PS5 Exists.
Well, Pokemon has made Amazon it's bitch, Titanfall as a franchise seems to perform better at a discount, FFXV still seems to be fairly popular despite Conan O'brien taking a flamethrower to it, and Xbox gamers now hate Watch Dogs for some reason... what gives?

Well Watch Dogs launched in a bad state iirc. Which should surprise NO ONE anymore because this is freaking Ubisoft, that's just what they do.
Also, I think Titanfall's surge is not only die to the discount and really excellent word of mouth. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare seems to have fallen really far from Black Ops in sales, consumer interest, and reputation. User impressions are low, even by recent CoD standards, and word of mouth I have heard concerning multiplayer has been mostly poor. Singleplayer word of mouth is good, but Activision has so completely built its success on multiplayer that the good Singleplayer just isn't helping. And to my shock, Modern Warfare Remastered doesn't seem to have exceptional word of mouth either. In short, it seems the CoD brand has suffered a bit of a collapse, opening the door for other games to storm into that holiday lead up window.
Also, Conan? Who takes main stream non-gaming, non-gamer media pundits and satirists seriously? Especially after they put their endorsement on No Man's Sky and freaking Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 :P
