For comparisons sake

• XB1 Sold 150k
• XB1 sold double X360 numbers at launch.
• PS3 165k / PSP 185k - record holder     (Sony aiming for ~250k this week.)

The Xbox One outsold the Xbox 360 two-to-one in the UK when you compare both console's launch periods.

The Xbox 360 launches in the UK in 2005 - nearly eight years ago.

Sales of the Xbox One, which launched on Friday 22nd November, amounted to 80 per cent of all home consoles sold this week.

10 of the 16 Xbox One launch titles debuted in the UK's top 40 chart, which counts physical sales only - exactly the same number of titles that appeared in the top 40 of the week of the Xbox 360's launch.

With a 328 per cent increase in sales, FIFA 14 returns to number one after a seven week absence. The lead format is the Xbox One version, which Chart-Track notes is the best-selling Xbox One game. But this is down to it being included in the Xbox One Day 1 edition, so it's a slightly misleading chart this week.

The PlayStation 4 version of FIFA 14 charts, despite the console not going on sale in the UK until this Friday, 29th November.

Call of Duty: Ghosts drops to second place after two weeks at the top. The PS4 and Xbox One versions bother released ahead of their consoles.

Battlefield 4 is in number three, boosted by the release of the Xbox One version. Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is similarly boosted into fourth place, with both the PS4 and Xbox One versions out this week.

Xbox One exclusive Forza 5 debuts at number five, but, like FIFA 14, benefited from being bundled in with some Xbox One consoles. Lego Marvel Super Heroes is sixth. Dead Rising 3 is in at seven. 3DS game The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds debuts at nine. The third biggest Xbox One exclusive is Ryse: Son of Rome, which enters the chart in tenth place.

Pretty impressive, although the ps3 selling more is a little concerning.

I dont mean to sound like an ass but...only 2 to 1?

Yes, only 2-1

And the 360 launched with 70k units, it also sold less then the PS3/PSP

So it sold about 140k? 

For comparison, PS3 sold around 160k

Hmm ok I guess but the ps4 will make this look insignificant next week

This makes a lot of sense. First Xbox was not popular in the UK, it was PS2 land. Even after the 360 and PS3 were out, the Wii stole the show. The fanbase the 360 has built up is the reason why Xbox One has sold many more, however it's still too expensive.

Can you add ~140k to the title?

Pretty good numbers. Probably could have done double if the supply was there.

Nothing can defeat the BONE!

....well maybe Ps4.

But aside from ps4

NOTHING CAN BEAT THE BONE!

You expect the PS4 to sell only 300k on its launch in Europe?

Good for it. It certainly has tonnes more brand momentum going for it at the moment than the 360 had in 2005.

I saw a massive XBone section in my local GAME when I went in on err... Saturday? Possibly.

(I also saw two kids trying the demo unit of a PS4, which had Octodad as the game. They got to the bit where Octodad has to kiss his wife and they both turned away in disgust, which made me laugh :P)
