They have a ton of room to make up in a short amount of time. All the Scorpio and regular edition pre orders, switch riding on Mario hype, it almost seems like an impossible feat at this point. I honestly can’t see ps4 winning November npd.

My gut says it’ll be Xbox>Switch>PS4.

It's going to hard to tell if it's possible until we get the firtst monthly update after the price drop.  Plus Khol's and gamestop have better deals.

When do those usually happen?

Then prepare  to be amazed, it will maybe  be switch > ps4> xbox 

You seriously think Xbox will be last for November with X/Scorpio pre orders in its arsenal? I can’t see that happening. Especially once the $199 S starts next week.

It's hard to tell because Amazon does not offer the best PS4 deals. Gamestop and Kohl's do. Also, Gamestop will be selling the Pro at $349, which Amazon isn't doing unless they decide to pricematch.



Good God, I go to sleep for 10 hours, wake up, log in, and find 103 unseen comments.

Having cross play without being able to join up with the other console users would still have huge benefits for everyone. It helps load times for us, it helps ecosystem for the devs. Allowing more players in 1 pool opening the possibility for more varied playlists. The negative effect for Sony would be marginal at best here. And arguing against cross play falls into blind allegiance in my mind. There's steps Sony and ms could take so it doesn't outright benefit Xbox and negitvly effect Sony.

Oh my Lord, please stop with this. It's the go to argument in every single thread on this subject. I'm a realist, that's all. People want to know why, I provide the answer.

The XB1S has already been getting significant deals. You could get the 500GB bundles at $249 along with a free game. There are also 3rd party sellers selling the XB1S at $199. The reason why the 1TB PS4 shot up so much was that it was a $100 drop from $299 to $199.

I know. I’m just saying Microsoft will still have a $199 offering too to with an already stacked X pre order number for November. I’m pretty sure the majority they sell this month will be the X however with S bringing up the rear seeing as how it’s performed all year. 

 

December is a huge toss up as everything will be even with no pre orders to help. 



Yeah I can do confirm I know a ton of people who left Xbox to join PlayStation because most off their friends were there.

Anyway this month is looking interesting. I genuinely have no idea who will come 1st 2nd or 3rd



So ... now people are seeing why I said it was too early to call. I learned that from last year ... and the one before that ... oh, and the one before that ... and, well, you get the picture.
