Top 100 is looking quite good for ps4, top 20 is even greater.

Yep, everything related to PS4 is dominating there. XB1 had head start in BF and price advantage so far for the last three weeks. From now onwards PS4 going to pick up as we got PS Experinece event and Christmas so LB3 bundle will be better for childrens.


Pretty much.

Why does Sony bundle the PS4 with a last generation game like GTA5? Updated or not, its last gen.

And GTA has also had much media attention for being violent and has a 18+ rating so many mothers wont buy this bundle for their children and the holiday sales are very much family oriented sales.

hmm maybe thats why they also have a Lego/LBp bundle durrr.



Me again to break your fun!

In the hourly best selling on amazone the PS4 bundle with TLoU and GTA V has been on top all morning so far, with XB1 AC Unity second... the only other console in the top 20 has been another PS4 bundle with LBP3 + Lego Batman...

I would not go as far as saying PS4 is crushing the XB1 today, it's obviously not... but going from the now in stock + amazone I think the PS4 is selling a bit more... maybe not enough to make up for the first 2/3 weeks of the month in North America (WW PS4 has the lead, there is no reason for that to change).

Either way, you can spin this as a boost for the XB1, it is, but this is not as if the PS4 sales were showing signs of slowing down, anywhere.

Because 90% of the gamers wants GTAV... it is the best bundle of the BF.

BF is not about gamers. BF is about the common consumer.  BF is about the best deals.  Still just got back from a little shopping boring and I say it will really end up to be who shipped the most. In Chicago Orland Park area everything was basically cleared out at Target, Walmart, Costco and Best Buy.  Target, Best Buy and Walmart had nothing except for one PS4 at Best Buy which was in someones hands. Costco when we checked out had 2 X1s being purchased and 1 PS4 at the same time.  



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

X1 AC was all alone at #1 all day yesterday at Amazon until the PS4 bundles went on sale last night. The X1 AC Kinect also sold out yesterday during that time. Still I dont even know if Amazon is the best gauge right now since it had the worst X1 price for the BF weekend. It was just the $329/$429 prices while all the other retailers through in extra gift cards, games, controllers.


X1 bundle wasn't up all day yesterday. It was up for a few hours before the ps4 went up. i checked it every hour. 

The top 100 the last few hours has been PS4 #1 X1 #2 PS4 #15 and PS4 #77 

That's it. SO it's safe to say PS4 is killing it today and if that's not enough then just look at gamestop. 

http://www.gamestop.com/browse

PS4 #1 PS4 #4 

And Xbox has dropped from like #11 a few hours ago to #13. I believe they hold hte biggest market share for consoles in the US so PS4 if that chart is true is killing it there too. 

Target is the only place I've heard of really fast X1 sales but they had by far the best deal. The end result even in target could be X1 selling out really fast, but PS4 has a slightly bigger shipement but it also sells out just over a longer period. November will be so interesting. Best battle in years.

When I woke up at 7AM CST yesterday the X1 $329 price was already available at Amazon, BestBuy.com and Microsoft.Com.   Gamestop is an also ran for consoles nothing compared to BestBuy, Target, Walmart especially  BF.

But it wasn't #1. It was like number #5. It only went #1 a few hours before the PS4 did.

I hope PS4 give a chance for Xbox one to win NPD on November, it will be to sadistic if PS4 win November as well.

360 won over 30 consecutive NPDs. How is it sadistic for the PS4 to have its 11th?

If anything it would be mean for the X1 to break its streak.

I would be shocked if the X1 lost NPD this month. The deals they were offering were insane. I already own a PS4 and had an X1 for like a week before I took it back TF sucked so I didn't want it anymore. With that said I'm so tempted to go online and buy the bundle at walmart it's just so tempting but I'm holding back because I honestly think it's a waste to have two consoles for someone like me. I just don't really care about either sides exclsuives and multiplats are all that matter to me (loving Dragon Age Inquisition). I side with Sony a bit more because they are constantly releasing new IP's and I always like to try new IP's. MS does the same sometimes but they'll abandon a new IP if it doesn't do well (alan wake which I loved), Sony does what it does best and allows itself to lose money.
