| nightsurge said: Please tell me you aren't using VGCHARTZ pre-order data for this... also, Sony took a huge lead early on because of MS's mishandling of the Xbox One reveal and the price difference. I think they will be much closer by launch. Not to mention casuals don't pre-order systems and MS are aligning the One to be more attractive to casuals/everyone besides just gamers. Actual sales will not directly reflect pre-orders. |
Well, aside from the VGChartz charts, we only have Amazon charts where the PS4 is running away with it and has been since E3. The lead is growing, its not shrinking and it wont be closer by launch.
It wasnt reveal that caused the main problems for Xbox One. We had reports of record breaking preorders afterall. It was what followed. They were fairly even until E3, with the One arguably winning... But since we saw both conferences, things have been all PS4, even after the 180.
| nightsurge said: They do if marketed well, but regardless the launch window will be very close and tied directly to supply, not so much demand. After launch, the casuals will be doing more of the buying and I think Xbox One will have another strong advantage there. |
You talk about the casual market in both of your posts.
What exactly does the One offer to the expanded market, that makes it worth the $500 asking price? Expecially when compared to the competition? Kinect? TV stuff
