http://wccftech.com/xbox-one-ps4-close-holiday-2017/ >Will the Xbox One X prove to be smart strategic move or a costly blunder? It’s a question many have been asking since Microsoft officially unveiled the souped-up console at this year’s E3. There seems to be some genuine excitement for the Xbox One X with pre-orders quickly selling out, but there’s reason to be concerned about the system’s high price and lack of exclusives. >Well, according to financial market analyst IDC, Microsoft’s gamble might just pay off. Per a recent IDC poll, the Xbox One is actually generating more interest than the PlayStation 4 as we head into the holiday season – 36.6 percent of consumers looking to buy a console want some version of the Xbox One, while only 35.6 percent want a PS4. Looking specifically at the high-end models, 21.6 percent of those polled want an Xbox One X, while 22.2 percent want a PS4 Pro.
