So it looks like the X1's baseline will be lower than the PS4's despite having a $50 price advantage. And this is before PS4 begins to have The Order: 1886, Bloodborne, MLB 15: The Show, etc. to temporarily boost sales.


Let me say this before I get charged with something I never said... I own a PS4... my GF is currently sitting next to me, playing Minecraft on said PS4... I actually like my PS4... but if we're going to be honest here, those games are not casual enough to warrant much of a boost if any boost at all. The types of games that really boost consoles are the ones with mass appeal like MK8, Titanfall, Halo, COD... you get the picture. 

This whole thing where fanboys are up in arms over the Xbone taking the US, it's nonsense because it's inevitable. I don't think they should be conerned with it. Of course, a fanboy is a fanboy for a reason, and being rational is not one of those, but really, it's stupid. The PS4 is going to win in total WW sales. 

There's nothing inevitable about the X1 taking over the US (obviously, as Amazon is just one of several outlets that has the PS4 ahead again). I also don't know what Minecraft has to do with anything. I didn't see anyone suggest that it was some system boosting title for the PS4.

Yea, I'm confused, too.  Is the bestsellers lists on some of these sites what an inevitable XBO takeover looks like?  Will the XBO takeover even faster (as in the PS4 pulling farther ahead on these lists) when the PS4 also hits $349 permanently?
