we all remember but the thing is the xbox graph was on the up so much it was hard to see the PS4 taking the USA this gen. Nobody saw that coming especially not a 1 million gap after just 10 months. 

My main point was the use of the word unprecedented.  The 360 seriously flipped the playstation2 lead, the ps4 has not come close to the same flip.

It isnt unprecedented.

the 360 released a year earlier and much cheaper. the net flip is proabably pretty equal. And it's only been 10 months. PS4 could pull away even more. 

what!?

ps2:  53.6m

xbox:  15.7m

 

ps3:  28.65m down almost 50%

xbox:  47.4m up over 200%

 

Now THAT was unprecedented... and any changes this gen wont be anywhere near those levels this gen.


the market has changed so a bad comparison. The PS2 had a lot of casuals. The net flip is pretty big and nobody predicted it. I'd call something that 99% of people didn't predict, unprecidented.
