Are we seriously pretending a one week head start is the reason for the PS4 being ahead? It's the price, power, history of these companies. I personally think the RROD situation affected MS's future sales but it's hard to prove something like that.


No.. Headstart in being the sales leader is what I meant..       Not release..    as many of said.. First to 10 million often wins the generation.. and PS4 was the FIRST to 10 million..   I agree history could have been another reason..    With PlayStation having a better global brand, and Microsoft screwing up the debut of X1... 


ah ok I see what you mean now and I can agree to an extent. MS messed things up so bad at E3 that it was going to take a while to turn things around because first you have to make the changes (which to MS a while) and then you have to start providing more then your opponent to get people back. Then you have to make sure everyone knows that things aren't the same as they were during E3 or whatever their friend told them happened at E3. Then you have to hope those people didn't already get a PS4. MS just made a mess of things this gen and the best they can hope for now is to  win the US.
