PS4 dominated the Xbox because of MS's arrogance. It's easy to forget MS Dominated Sony with the 360, outselling it 2-1 in the states (though globally it was more even).

Bundled kinect and always-on licensing, restricted game sharing, etc, and the opinions changed instantly in the US.

The XB1 got trounced.

They've worked hard to correct it (and I'm an xbox-first guy, though I have had a PS3 and PS4 also). And they continue to work hard to correct it.

But the XBOne launch is the worst mis-step in the history of the franchise. Much worse, even, than the red ring of death.

Having said that, MS doesn't seem to care much about having a leadership position in terms of console sales. They're making plenty of money and seem happy with their strategy. And just because they're finishing in 2nd (I don't count the switch...which I also have...because that's just kind of a different market) doesn't mean you're not doing well.

What about that trailer made you think halo looks insane?

343 has proven time and time again that they have no idea what to do with the franchise, so I expect nothing short of disappointment again

PS3 ended up catching and passing 360 sales globally.
