Are there any Xbox One bundles available on Amazon?

I know there are on Gamestop, but we can't see any sales number from there.

Why don't we just say screw the preorder numbers until after the holidays. None of this matters at all right now.

Does the PS4 really launch on December 31? If that's true than X1 might outsell ps4 for the holidays

It does to a certain extent. You want your console to sell well so that publishers are more likely to develop games for the platform.

Both the PS4 and One will have no problem selling enough consoles to entice publishers.

Microsoft has put aside $1 billion for exclusive titles. Neither one of them will have any issues getting publishers to make games for their consoles. Especially because like I said earlier we still have no idea what the real sales totals will look like until after the holidays.

this shite is all speculation, they could literally do all this and keep prices the same while profiting more.

I thought the main reason you didn't want the xbox was because of the Internet thing and it has been reversed but you still hate on the Xbox.

His response to me was that hell own both, so it's ok, he's allowed to hate MS.

Where is your link? Even if true it is an insanely small margin.

Doesn't really matter. Those numbers don't mean a whole lot whenever we don't know how they'll be allocated. Keep in mind that whatever Halo title they release will be budgeted ~150 million as they've spent 75-100 million solely on advertising.

Sony has said they have 140 titles to be released by the end of 2014. Doesn't mean a whole lot until we see what they are. That 140 could be contain 75-100 indie or PSN titles, which isn't a bad thing, just makes that big number not as exciting.

Yes, but there's a lot more to a console's library than the big blockbuster titles that release every year. Having a more well-rounded library that contains more than big IPs is important, imo.

We didn't get quite that this generation with the lack of a super dominating platform like the PS2.
