#1 - $350 AC: Unity X1 bundle

#19 - PS4

#88 - PS4 Destiny bundle

Given that Christmas Eve and the day after Christmas are two of the biggest shopping days of the year and the PS4 bundles were just slashed, we may be in for a photo finish. It will be interesting to see how these standing shake out. How often do they usually update?

Those 2 days don't offset the other 23 that come before it tho. Especially as they're still both tied.

Yeah, he says it as if PS4 is #1 right now and X1 is in the 30s.

As we saw in November, X1 helded a steady lead all month and won by a far smaller margin than any of us expected. The gap for the week of 12/6 was only 80K, so the margins haven't been crazy. The PS4 was leading on the traditionally busiest day of the month, which very well means that the volume sold could be significantly more than any other period in December (BF was one of those gamechanger days.). Coupled with holiday return day (12/26) and the new PS4 sales, we definitely could see things tighten up in the next few days. My prediction is that they finish closely, but the X1 holds on to its lead.

You misread or misunderstood my post.



Ubisoft wins. That is all.

What? Speak for yourself, I didn't see many predicting over 400k win for XB1.

As for the rest, just no. Xmas eve does not negate the other 23 days that come before it, and it wasn't even leading for the whole day (and is behind again) and was only leading by 1 or 2 places so the gap would have been minimal.




 

I have two xb1s day one edition paid $550 bought second xb1 for $250 unity bundle...it's kinda interesting did big box retail chain purchases this year and kept seeing people walking out with xb1s and asking for price matches or freebies with their xb1 purchases. This is just here in the states and I live in wa state, I am sure ps4 will win global but xb1 should catch ps4 next holiday season in na. Looks like xb1 is turning the tide in na and should keep selling well with permanent price drop....ms would be stupid to raise prices back up after the holidays



Merry Christmas everyone!

You can really tell that the sales have dropped off the PSN Cards getting back to the top spots!
