In a little over a year ps4 has had over 20(21 in fact) 1 million sellers

12 1 million sellers

7 2 million sellers

3 4 million sellers

should get 4-5 more by the end of the year

this is insane!

Added Minecraft since I think thats over 1 million now on ps4 due to digital



Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

They also have less $60 retail games to choose between.  Competition has also sold less systems, while having more $60 games to choice between. So them not hitting 3 million is more likely and if they do with the number of units sold, it would be a massive acheivement at it's current state.

But most of the million sellers were $60 retail games.  The exception I believe is TLOU.

How unimpressive, I mean they have sold more consoles and have less games to choose from than MS. Now if their console was selling worse and they were releasing more games I would be impressed by PlayStation =P

Sony is at attach rate is 3.79 for COD AW

Xbox one is 3.28  for COD AW

However Xbox One has Halo MCC, Sunset and more $60 retail games to choose between. So you could say that the .51 less attach ratio is really just spent on other games.

Ps4 over all attach rate is 4.03

XBox One Over all attach rate is 3.99.  

So this is a virtual tie and both are keeping the exact same attach ratio. meaning they are selling the exact same amount of games.

So I think they are both selling great and booming out games, also we do not now a majority of Digital, so they must have at least a 5 game attach ratio or close to.
