me either. PS4 is the "it" console now, so most third party games will benefit it more than the XB1. also the marketing, exclusive content and bundle are really helping the PS4. doesnt mean the xb1 cant get a bump from it. infact i think it will give it the second biggest boost this year after CoD

a boost, sure.  not sure i believe it can even crack 100k though.   maybe just barely...   perhaps i should temper that statement until after i see the teir 2 results but i just don't feel it.  90k maybe?

no idea honestly. but i think it will give it a good boost to start setting up momentum for the holiday. Destiny in 9th of september, then fifa, Desiny infinity, and Forza in late september.

GTAV tripled sales for both 360 and PS3 week on week last year.

Since XBOX ONE is doing around 50k right now, I could see it breaking 100k easily.

Destiny is no GTA though. heck, CoD is no GTA.

No, but is it 2/3s GTA?

That's all it needs to bump XBOX ONE that high.

Definitely possible but lets see where it starts from after the other launches... I'm guessing not too much higher

im pretty sure thats not how these things work lol. you dont just say "its one third of game X so it will boost one third of the consoles" i could be wrong, but there are many other factors at play.

There's all these factors to consider. 
-install base
-holiday boosts vs pre holiday boosts
-sales
-bundles
-marketing
-other stuff

Yes. But less on XBOX One as compared to GTAV on 360
