Even at $50 it will sell well enough if the rumor of extra content is true. People go crazy during the holidays.
especially if it is for a gift for someone younger (even new console purchase)
MS is poised to do really well this holiday season as per normal and they could be banking on Holiday sales to see them through the following quarters
They might do well in North America. Probably the UK as well. That'll be about it and I doubt it will amount to much, ultimately. Relying on holiday sales to possibly get you through the next 6 months would be suicide. The only reason the X1 didn't tank in the first quarter this year was because of Titanfall and the $400 sku selling alongside the now vanishing Titanfall bundle may be the only thing that saved them from having a completely horrible second quarter. Though it looks like now that the Titanfall bundle is largely gone, the $400 sku alone isn't competitive enough. The PS4 is crushing it on Amazon.
For me project spark, game legends, and sunset overdrive are the main reason to get an xone

Like Tacos said, Project Spark is releasing this Fall after being in Beta for forever now. Plus, let's be honest. No one cares. Xbox fans only use it as a talking point for a list war and no one outside of that fanbase has said much about it. You never really see any real conversations about it. Certainly not conversations as if it's a big deal. People still talk about Knack more than Project Spark. Not to mention it's not a retail title as far as I know which is what most people discuss when talking about the Holiday lineup or really any quarter lineup. If we start getting into digital titles we all know who wins that battle just by sheer volume alone.
The nktrnl rumor was that Fable Legends is releasing sometime during Summer 2015. So there is the chance that it could be a May, June, or July release but that would still leave the first quarter barren and the second quarter questionable. Though I know I'm not the only one who was underwhelmed by what Microsoft showed of that game at E3. So far that guy has been spot on with what he revealed. So unless Microsoft has a surprise announcement at Gamescom for a big title releasing Early 2015, the X1 might end up getting smoked by a one-two punch of The Order and Bloodborne with either nothing to counter or countering too late to matter.
