PS4 software sales are getting ridiculous in UK.

DAT 47%

I'm starting to believe more and more Xbone owner will get a PS4 and make it the Multiplatform machine or trade it to get a PS4 in UK.

Yep, bundled games (including download codes in X1 SKUs) are included in UK charts. NPD/US do not count official bundled games but do count retailer bundles (e.g. MS promotion of free game with any X1 console).

Then how the heck is FIFA 15 selling the worst on XOne, when it has a bundle? And from what I see, that is the only game officially bundled with XOne (all others are retailer created packages).

Is it possible that VGC is overtracking XOne in the UK?

Lol, that's the first time I've seen your sig, is that new?

I thought we had already called that bet off and I was just too lazy to change my sig.

The last two releases had a 40+% for PS4... Q4 will increase the difference.

Nah, I'm sure you wouldn't have a problem finding someone to take that bet on here, but I'm personally not too sure if it'll hit the 17 million so it won't be me. Lol

I'm more surprise anybody could predict less than 15 million after PS4 launch... well I predicted close to 5 million shipped for 2013 in June 2013.

When you did that bet?

PS. It will do close to 19m this year... No way it will sell less than 3 million in Nov and Dec.

Don't remember, it was sometime before Gamescom.

Yeah it's funny how 17M was impossible back in June when i made this prediction, it was the crazy prediction for everyone and now it's  the least to expect

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m
