LOL at all of this "maybe the X1 can turn it around" nonsense. The system is five months old. The X360 had a year long start on the PS3, then the PS3 launched at $600 to abysmal sales. It was constantly trying to catch up for 7 years, and really didn't come close to neck and neck with the 360 in sales until last year. Oh, and lets not forget that the X1 has still outpaced sales of the 360 in the same time frame.
Its a marathon, not a sprint. Sales to this point are irrelevant. The more expensive console always sells less at first. It takes one game, one damn game to turn things around. Titanfall for instance, was responsible for many X1's being sold. In 2-3 years time, things will look completely different. The library of games for both systems will be fleshed out, an official price drop or two will have happened, and they will be neck and neck like they were at the end of last gen. Gotta love the hyperbole of the interweb. A collective consciousness of know nothings.
TF was supposed to be that one game for this year. I think price would play a bigger factor than a game right now. TF was supposed to be the one to put X1 on top of March NPD. It didn't. Right now, the best way to garner more sales would be a definitive price drop. $499 is still too expensive for what X1 brings to the table and this opinion is shared among the many potential consumers around the world as expressed in the sales numbers. Since 2014, the X1 steam has slowed down considerably when compared to the PS4. To make matters worse, PS4 didn't even have any sales or bundle deals. They sold on normal MSRP. What's going to happen when they start to make deals and game bundles? The sales will increase further. So, to sum it up, I think a price drop makes more of an impact on the X1 sales right now than that one game.
