Awakening? No, not really. If I am wrong and it has sold a ton, I will only be happy. I don´t take pleasure in the lower sales, I want them all to sell a bucket load so the industry can continue to grow.

Let's be honest with ourselves here. You are purposely lowballing the sales of the PS4 so in your mind the XBO has a shot to catch up. Why else even suggest that VGC has it overtracked, when overall it has always been undertracked here, while proclaiming XBO is most likely spot on (which conveniently puts the gap at less than 2.5M.)
Now, don't get me wrong. It's completely fine that you are rooting for the XBO if that's the console you prefer. However, let's be geniune about the situation. It is (almost) entirely impossible for the PS4 to only be at 13M, and you know it. Sales would have had to slow down to a crawl, which is not happening, especially given the holidays.

Well, I was sure before this generation started that X1 would end up in 2nd place behind PS4, so there goes that theory :). I must say I thought the PS4 shipments at the end of september were a bit lower than I would have expected and the X1 announcment of "almost 10M" (whatever that means :)) was also a bit surprising. MS do have a tendeny to overship though, so that might explain some of it. And where did you get the gap of 2.5M?

Honestly, math fail. Idk why, but I was thinking 10M for PS4 when I looked at the XBO's 7.6M. Still, that would make it less than 5.5M, when it's probably more like VGC's ~7M.
