If it was 3.9 then they will say 4 times and not three... to say three it was really close to 3 times... if they had the change they will spin even to 3.5 times... 3 means they barelly sold over 3 times.

And I guess you didn't read the PR spin.

"The response to this wave of blockbuster game releases and new bundles has been amazing, and sales have skyrocketed since the new price took effect on Nov. 2. Compared to the previous week, Xbox One sales in the US have more than tripled, which is exciting as more and more friends will be playing together this holiday. As we head into the busy holiday season Xbox One led generation 8 console sales in the US for the past two weeks. Shortly, we will have sold in to retailers more than 10 million Xbox One consoles."

After Nov 2 price cut... compared with previous week (week ending Nov 1st)... Xbone sales more than trilped in US... wave of blockbusters means Unity, MCC, CoD, and SO... so they cleary are talking about sales up to 12nd or at least 11st.

Yeap... my maths are right.

Actually no, over 3x for Microsoft can be anywhere between 3.1x-3.6x at the least. Before June NPD, MS said sales for the One were over 2x that of May, leading a lot of Gaffers to believe the number was 154k-160k, but in reality the number was 197k, which was a 2.56x increase.
