Insider: PS4/Xbox One WW Margin To Be Huge in March

Renown insider Pete Dodd just shared some information on Microsoft’s Xbox One upcoming NPD report, stating that it will be very tough, while Sony had another great month.

As a result, Dodd predicts that with PlayStation 4 launching in Japan during February, the worldwide margin between the two warring consoles could be significant coming March:

On the other hand, there have been a number of leaks (apparently coming from inside Microsoft) about Xbox One games and their release dates.

  • Forza Horizon: “Fall 2014, probably September. Super sexy weather system and… shit tons of co-op/social stuff. 1080P and open-world, so you can road trip with your bros.”

  • White Xbone incoming.

  • Halo Anniversary 2 will be 1080p, iffy on the 60fps, maybe not.

  • Quantum Break is Holiday 2014

  • Multiplayer confirmed for HA2, same devs as Halo Anniversary.

  • Sunset Overdrive is Fall 2014

  • Black Tusk cancelled project was called “Shangheist.” May have involved stealing stuff from the Chinese (though I think that may have been a reference to the name and maybe not the gameplay? Not sure…)

  • Fable Legends is Summer 2015

  • Halo 2 Anniversary includes beta for Halo 5

  • Gears of War will probably need a 2.5 year dev time.

  • First Titanfall DLC is 45 days from release, then another one 120 days from release.

  • No Crackdown 3 news this year most likely, since it’s a 2016 title.

  • A list w/dates of the rest of the Tier 2 and Tier 3 countries that Xbone will release in this year.

  • No info/idea on what Rare’s up to, sadly.

  • $399 XB1 this year? “Maybe one without an Optical Disc Drive.”

What do you make of all of this? Was this a controlled leak to win some good press back or not? Let us know below.
