I'm amazed there are so few predictions right now so close to the deadline. Is it normally like this for non-holiday/big AAA game release months?

He claims he has "facts" which he ofcourse has not shared at all, he also seems like a gigantic fanboy. So i am not even sure you should spend another second to ponder who or what he knows. He is pushing a video that claims 40% of all PS4's are getting bricked. To me that sounds like desperation, and desperation typically comes from people who are too emotionally attached to a certain brand. And desperation like this usually results in bullshit and lies spread around.

He can't even spell.

But anyway, january npd should be interesting. There are quite a few people predicting X1 to outsell the Ps4.

Makes me wonder what their reasoning is...

Yeah. That video he posted is from Nov. 16. I wouldn't let Nitebreed affect your predictions. :)

Considering that his last tweet is liking a youtube video about the PS4's 40% failure rate, I kinda doubt he's reliable.

Edit: Should really finish reading before chiming in. Everyone beat me to this a while ago...

Incidentally I was wondering, may Superbowl have given somehow a boost to XboxOne?

I recall Microsoft made a deal with NFL to provide exclusive content on their new console; I don't know whether this deal has been already effective this year, if so Superbowl should have made a selling point for a lot of people in the U.S.
