PR Statements:

Microsoft
"Thanks to our fans and their excitement for new Xbox One games and the recently launched Xbox One S -- which is the only console available this holiday with built-in UHD 4K Blu-ray, 4K video streaming, and HDR for video and gaming -- Xbox One was the best-selling console in the U.S. in August, according to NPD Group. In addition, we continue to see strong engagement on Xbox Live -- the fastest, most reliable gaming network -- with total global gaming hours on Xbox One consoles increasing 42 percent year-over-year. We've also received an incredible response to Xbox Design Lab, which saw millions of visits to the site and hundreds of thousands of designs created by fans. We're excited to launch Clubs and Looking for Group on Xbox Live broadly this holiday alongside some of our biggest titles for the year, including ReCore, Forza Horizon 3, Gears of War 4 and Dead Rising 4."

The XB1 is making a comeback. The PS4 is doomed. The age of Sony is over.

Am I doing it right?
