Even though Xbox got slim out and is selling better with PS4Slim and PS4Pro I don't think PS4 will drop much bellow 2:1 against X1. So PS4 will reach first.

Bold: Of course I can't know for sure but I highly expect current PS4 sales to be restricted for 2 reasons.

1. People wanting a PS4 Pro
2. People wanting a PS4 Slim COD bundle

 

Once these bundles and PS4 Pro release, I think PS4 has the US and UK holiday on lock.

I think the Holidays will determine this to be honest. Depending on how well the XB1s does this Holiday will be key. But without anything drastic happening I can see the PS4 reaching 55 million before the XB1 can reach 30mil. With the PS4s IW bundle and PS4 pro and FFXV(which is multiplat I know) I can see the PS4 during HUGE numbers starting late Oct early Nov.

And on the flip side with the XB1s being the cheapest 4k bluray player on the market right now AND with 4K TVs being so cheap now I can see it having a good boost. Plus with the recent release of FH3 and with Gears 4 on the horizon the right bundles can give the XB1 a great boost as well!

So I will say it is possible the XB1 can reach 30mil first but my gut is telling me to go with the PS4 reaching 55mil first because of how much better it sells WW.

Ohhh I'm sure of it. I'm just saying that even though X1S have been selling better and PS4+Slim have slowed down with Pro coming up it will dash in front.

Certainly PS4 will reach 55M before X1 reaches 50M (not sure if it will even reach it).

Oh. Maybe I misquoted you.

I thought I read something about bad PS press and XB1S having bigger sales spikes than PS4 Pro and Slim. Sorry

My bad LMBO I wrote that all wrong I meant before it reaches 30mil! The PS4 would have to literally die in order for the XB1 to reach 50mil before it reaches 55mil lol.

I personally don't care for these bundles, but they are worth quoting.

:p

Well considering the PS4 is sell more than 2:1 the Xbox One, it would be logical to assume the PS4 would hit 55 million first. By the time Xbox One sells 8 million the PS4 will sell over 16 million.

I don't care for those bundles either. I think COD is rubbish nowadays. Even BO3. Don't tell Ryng

But there's not much doubt in my mind that the mainstream market will be all over PS4 Pro and PS4 Slim COD bundle this holiday.
