So what are you trying to argue?

4.8 Million is a bigger number than 4.2 Million.

I was pretty clear in my post...

"The attach rate was bigger bevause the three exclusives sold 1.5m vs 600k on PS4... 3rd-party games sold more on PS4."

1st-party
Xbone: 1.5m (four or five games.. ~90k was the others two exclusives)
PS4: 600k (two games)

3rd-party
Xbone: 3.3m
PS4: 3.6m

BTW the attach rate for 3rd-party is equal or slightly better on PS4 (same number of games)... PS4 had lewss RETAIL exclusives... so the sales are lower... it is easy to understand.

That's all that needs to be said.  It's pretty easy to understand.

 Xbox fans rushed out and gobbled up exclusives since they had a few at launch.  PS4 owners simply had less exclusives to purchase ( Resogun was free )  and the exclusive games that PS4 owners had (Killzone) probably have more of a replayability factor than ( Forza, Dead Rising, Ryse)  

This  will change once real legitimate software is released for both platforms. Especially as the PS4 will continue to pull away from the pack.
