UK and USA are very much up for grabs for the Xbox One. PS4s domination in the rest of the world will keep it ahead WW though.


I honestly think the UK might be lost. ~400k gap is hell of a lot to close. Will take a lot of time if it ever does.



usa? yes, it might even surpass it in one month. globally? hell no, it will be a slaughter in EU and sony will receive a small boost from japan that wont happen to the xb1.

Isn't this question just considering the sales for the coming holiday period though?

Yep, after the holidays will definitely be able to answer with conviction probably .

Someone please educate anyone not from the UK where argos is in terms of sales ;)

Where are you getting Argos from? 



Close, as in 65-70% of the PS4's sales; yes, I believe I have said as much as soon as the price lowered and Kinect was out of the picture. Close, as in close enough to potentially beat it for a week; unlikely.
People have been severely underestimating the One's growth potential and seriously overestimating the PS4's sales potential (quite a few had the PS4 pegged for 20 million sales by year's end 2014) but there's still a very, very long way to the top.



Globally? No fucking way, toasty.. :/
