Well it is cheaper....a huge factor.
It did launch earlier....not that much earlier but still
and most importantly. It launched in a lot of more countries so it should have more sales.

The PS3 has been selling more than the 360 at a higher price for years.

The earlier launch was far too insignificant to matter much.

It did launch it more countries, but it's also beating the X1 in pretty much every country they are both out in. The PS4 also still has Japan up it's sleeve, something the X1 isn't likely to benefit much from, and the PS4 has also been constantly hit by supply issues.

Anything else you want to add? ^^

It outsold it at the end of the generation.....it took 8 years...

Ps4 is beating the xbox one is the US because of the price. It launched worldwide so supply issues should be high obviously. More countries means less consoles shipped to each country. Microsoft launched in only 13 so that gave them more supply for each country. It isn't rocket science.

Ps3 had alot more exclusives over it's lifetime than xbox 360. People buy consoles to play exclusive games. That alone gave sony the advantage to sell more consoles than microsoft. 

I will await your replay..

1-PS3: $600, 12 months after X360 launch in NA and 16 months after X360 launch in Europe. It's why X360>PS3 while almost all the generation but since PS3 launch it always was PS3>X360 for the sales every years.

2- Japan for PS4 = all countries(where PS3 outsold X360 by far) where XB1 must still have a launch.

3- yes PS4 launched 1 week before in NA but 1 week after in Europe. Balance
