Forums - Gaming - PS4 beating XB1 at Amazon

Considering Amazon said that Xbox One was selling through its preorders very quickly, I guess PS4 is doing even better. I wonder if they'll make an announcement. Then again, they are being sponsored by MS, so they may have paid them to be silent about the competition.

Better exclusives? What? The exclusives certainly aren't bad. Titanfall looks nice along with Dead Rising 3 but that's about it. PS4 has Killzone 4, Infamous Second Sun, Drive Club, The Order and you know there is bound to be an insane amount of exclusives like PS3. I will say it's relatively even at the moment but no console "by far" has better looking exclusives.

Not really an exclusive (since on PC too) but console only people are gonna be amazed at planetside 2 too, I would think. It's gonna be the biggest console shooter ever...literally.



Looking good so far.



PS4 games seems to be doing great too compared Xbone's ones.

And well, the success of a console is the success of its games.

Best PS4 game :

Watch Dogs PS4 #6 in US

Best Xbone game :

Forza 5 #11



Mod locked a thread I created on this recently (rightfully so as this exists), so I told them I'd contribute the OP to the existing thread.  Here's the latest:

The other day Amazon split the PS4 into a "Launch Edition" and "Standard Edition" with the following disclaimer:

Product Alert
The standard version of the PlayStation 4 is identical to the Launch Edition. Due to high demand, we cannot guarantee Release-Date Delivery on the standard version of the PlayStation 4. We will deliver the standard version of PlayStation 4 as close to its release date as possible.

The same was done with the XBox One, albeit with a "Day One Edition" and a "Standard Edition", with the Day One edition including some limited edition swag from Microsoft.  The "Launch Edition" of the PS4 has been unavailable for a few days now with the entire allocation claimed, and up until today, has been in first place on the Amazon Best Sellers list for video games with the XBox One "Day One Edition" second, and the PS4 "Standard Edition" third.  Looking today, the top 20 looks like this (I included The Last of Us simply due to the fact that it releases today):

1. PlayStation 4 "Standard Edition" - $399.96
2. XBox One "Day One Edition" - $499.96
3. PlayStation 4 "Launch Edition" - SOLD OUT
4. The Last of Us (PS3) - $59.99
5. Dualshock 4 Controller - $59.96
...
8. Watch_Dogs (PS4) - $59.99
...
12. Killzone: Shadow Fall (PS4) - $59.99
...
14. Forza Motorsport 5 "Day One Edition" - $59.99
15. XBox One Wireless Controller - $59.96
16. PlayStation 4 Camera - $59.99
17. Destiny (PS4) - $59.99
18. Battlefield 4 (PS4) - $59.99

What's interesting is the the availability of the XBox One "Day One Edition", as well as the attach rate for PS4.  That, and this:

47. XBox One "Standard Edition" - $499.96

PS4 is beating XB1 in pretty much all major Amzon sites.



Congrats to the Ps4, that price is certainly attractive.

I think that the PS4 will announce more games in the coming months relative to X1, it seems like M$ tried their hardest to show as many games as possible.
