So because Sony apparently shipped more consoles than MS did so far (we don't have any numbers from MS yet), MS has production problems with the Xbox One... Awesome logic you have there.

So MS decided they didn't need to ship more units because I don't know... they don't want to sell Xbones... magical logic here

Fact: While Sony manufacture 2x PS4... MS is having a hard work to manufacture 1x Xbones... that's just a example and it can't be 2:1 but 3:2 for example.

Let us assume that MS shipped as munch as Sony. Sony sold 2.1 M PS4 worlwide compare to 1.5 M Xbox One of MS. So are you saying that demand for Xbox One is near 600 K less compare to PS4???

Maybe this is not that fair let us take the US which is MS strongest territory, 1.25 M PS4 vs 0.94 Xbox One. So are you saying that the demand for Xbox One in his strongest territory near 300 K less than the PS4???

That is of course assuming that the Xbox One is shipping at the same rate with the PS4...

5 to be exact but Kinect support 8 languages:


Microsoft's product planner Albert Penello has since taken to Twitter and to Neogaf to confirm that voice control will be available in a further three countries, in addition to the five listed on the Xbox site. In a post on Neogaf, he clarified:

"In November
 - We will launch in 13 geos
 - 10 of those geos will support some voice features
 - We support 8 languages

The 8 Languages at Launch are:
 1) English - US
 2) English - GB (WW)
 3) French
 4) Spanish - MX
 5) Spanish - ES
 6) Italian
 7) German
 8) Portuguese

http://www.oxm.co.uk/61322/xbox-one-kinect-voice-control-only-available-in-8-languages-at-launch/

That is why Austria also have the xbox released because their official language is Germany.

 

We need to use English here in Brazil

And Portuguese is not Portuguese BR... I have trouble to talk with Portugueses... some times it is easy to talk with Spanish.

That is possible I don't know myself, but what I know that those 8 languages are spoken in those 13 countries that can't be a coincidence right?

So you mean Sony and MS shipped ~2.3m WW and Sony sold 2.1m and MS only 1.5m?

After that Sony shipped more units to US and EU and have the planned Middle East Launch in two days... so more shipment.

I can't seen MS even remotally shipping the same amount than Sony... Sony is supplying US + EU + the others countries launch this week... I'm expecting over 3.5m shipped for the end of the year.

Those smaller european countries are not irrelevant:

1. They are some of the weathiest countries in the world. There is a lot of money to make out of 1 gamer of those countries.

2. They are some of the most online and social media oriented countries in the world. So the presence of these people on the internet as a whole is relatively great compared to people from many other countries.

These countries together are not the USA or Japan, but they are also not irrelevant.


Guerilla Games is a Dutch company, that's means this company comes from the Netherlands (also known as Holland).
They make Killzone, a launch title for Sony.
Would they be owned now by Sony and be important during the launch of the PS4, if Sony would have disregarded the Netherlands in the past?

Lol, I was actually on your side. I was just trying to show to DirtyP2002 that he cannot have it both way. Cause if you are saying that MS is matching Sony shipments then you are saying Xbox One demand are behind way behind. But if you admit MS has production problems, then you can use this as an excuse saying that is the reason they are behind. But you cannot have both way. It's one or the other.

Considering how well Sony is supplying the periferal countries (yes, this is a irony) there is not to be fear.

However, a Q3 is realy weird, damand in NA and EU won´t be that high for the first 2Q, no much more than 500K a month. They can produce a lot more than that as this hollyday supply has proved.

And just let me get back at some of our previous rumors.

Rumor 1 - Party Chat is broken and will take months to fixed.
Reality: Party Chat is just not as intuitive to use as in the 360.

Rumor 2 - Interface is sluggshed with terrible performance.
Reality: Interface works just as advertised, only with some dificulty to understand a few commands in few situations.

Rumor 3 - Yelds Issues, Xone will have a severely shortage for months.
Reality: The only console that appers to have shotage is the PS4, and with sales not as espetacular as some belived.

Yes! PS4 sales are not very spectacular. Apparently there is plenty of stock on the shelves

Rumour 4.  Etmhomz confirmed that there was no chance that I would get online at launch, none.  If I was lucky enought to get online I would lose connection almost immediately.

Rumour 5. Ethomaz says the Ui just doesnt work, it will be almost unusable.  It will take "months and months" to fix.

Both horseshit obviously.

Rumor 4: Bullshit... shows truth.

Rumor 5: Read again what I said... the UI when used together with the Party Chat playing games... the famous multitasking gets a hell of slow... proved thruth... the Party Chat didn't work well with others apps and make the UI get slow... in fact the Party Chat can't even do cross game... MS (aka Marjor Nelson) said they will look in the fix in the next months... how many months to fix? lol

EPIC
