| aLkaLiNE said: these articles should be referencing YOY, not week over week as that's an entirely poor indicator of how sales really are doing. For instance, I'm sure that sales took a dive for both Sony and Ms leading up to the launch of their new slim consoles. So why then would we reference the week before the launch, where sales will have been abnormally lower? Year over year would have made much more sense and given us real numbers to work with. |
The group reporting on this news holds a clear bias in favor of XB1 S. They're constantly rushing out any possitve XB1 sales news they can in order to paint this picture that Sony is failing in the UK, while XB1 is just dominating. Same story with the US. People seem to completely ignore that PS4 still has an overall lead, and the boost in XB1 sales is coming from firesales over OG XB1's, and the spike from the release of the S due to MS marketing the shit out of it as it's own unique hardware.
