Forums - Sales Discussion - Prediction: Xbox One will sell more than the PS4 in Europe in 2015

mulder07 on 23 December 2014

In usa it's possible, but i'm sure that is not going to happen in europe. I wish they'll have similar sales because that's the best for the players (companies would have to do more efforts, price drops, more polished games,...)

I'm sure even the OP knows that its not gonna happen, he just wants to see people react like they do in a toastboy thread.

The points he makes are as poor as they can get.

Not going to happen, you see. I live in Europe and the playstation brand is so huge and popular over here and I don't see it changing because win 10 compatibility with Xbox. Most of the console owners or at least going by people I know don't care so much about PC. Also people get the console their friends have so they can play with them and going by that it's maybe to late for x1 to catch up in Europe sins ps4 is doing so well in every country over here. We are fifa nerds over here and fifa is so heavily advertised with x1 now days and that did not even help x1 to sell more, so I don't think exclusives will matter that much in the end, not even Halo. But however I can see a huge price cut make x1 more wanted over here but even then it would be hard for it to outsell ps4. UK is the only part of the Europe where X1 is as popular as ps4 and that's because of the crazy deals they have been offered and to be fair UK was a xbox territory in past gen so I guess that has something to do with it too but in the end ps4 will eventually get a price cut too so meh. so for now, you are crazy ;)


Sony have dropped their $280m (if my memory serves) annual advertising deal with FIFA which is gonna have an impact too...Football is massive in Europe as you know

That won't have any impact at all, is not like the game isn't coming out on PS4

This is one of the worst predictions I've read this year.

Yes but her comment is borderline flamebait.

I'm not sure how saying that one is "more bang for your buck" flamebait. It's no different than the majority of the write up of the OP, a strong opinion.


With no reasons at all but to simple assume everyone see's value besides the OP. It is borderline, didn't say it was bannable. 

With Xbox One I see way more Value, for my purpose, so if I go into a Sony thread and on the first page write, XBOX JUST HAS MORE BANG FOR THE BUCK. Not reasons as to why, this would flame up that thread and i wouldn't think of doing it.  The question was, will Xbox one sell more in Europe? Not how great PS4 is...

1-Nobody care about os all what it's matter it's games
2-Halo is not big in Europe so it won't make xbox 1 selling more in Europe
3-I don't think a price cut is enough
4-Forza is in decline
5-Casuals had just dissapear from consoles market some go to smartphone gaming some are just happy with their Wii
6-Money ain't everything and ps3 outsold xbox360 in Europe despite that



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

The major issue for Microsoft in 2015 is so much of this is out of their hands. Competitive price, strong line up and all still won't make Europe suddenly switch in massive numbers to them.

To put another way...

Ye but that fifa deal is for , world cup and european cup. World cup has already been and that has nothing to do with next year in terms of advertising. Sony has still Uefa deal next year which is for champions league, champions league is almost on tv every two week from September to May so I don't see how advertising for playstation wil change next year because Sony is done with fifa.  Also sony advertised 4k most of the time during world cup which has nothing to do with playstation division and fifa has gaining bad reputation lately because of world cup in qatar etc so I don't see how this shall effect playstation negative. Like I said, fifa (the game) has been heavily advertised with xbox1 sins the launch of current gen and that has not helped anything here in europe sins ps4 still dominates in terms of copies of the game sold and amount of consoles sold in europe. Never seen a add for fifa 15 for playstation, only on x1 and x1 has '' exclusives'' contents which nobody gives a damn about too.
