The numbers on Vgchartz and every source ever released heavily favour PS4, even in the US, but if you want to stay in denial that's on you. It won;t be tight..at all, expecially world wide.

Google is your friend.


Remember, if it's on the internet it has to be true. 


Vgchartz pre-orders are always off. Also, PS4 Pre-orders are sold out, so the gap has to close. Your going to see both sell out until after christmas. Then it is up to MS marketing machine to fix the launch and remind people they have the best games ( which they are already doing a good job off, they haven't even started). Sony fans are all up in arms because it's a rocky start, the system HAS NOT SOLD YET! Next christmas we can have this talk, XBOX ONE is going to be selling like hot cakes by then, HALO and by then, no one will remember the DRM issue.

XBox One is going to sell great. I also think it's going to be close like this gen. The first year PS4 will have the advantage but once HALO and price drops, Xbox One will gain momentum. I say first year PS4, second xbox One.

You're using logic, logic is a thinking mans game. We don't want your kind around here:). j/k


How? Most of hos arguemtns are eaislt countered, in fact they have been. It will take more then halo and a price drop for Ms to outsell Sony, a lot more. They always had halo, and were cheaper, the market to themselves fro over a year, yet they didn;t outsell Sony. No such advantage this time.

I saw the comments on this article in other sites.......PS guys get insecure sometimes, even about the smallest, most insignificant details.

Moneyhatting and what not, because the notion that Xbox is more impressive to some just doesn't compute.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Ps3 outsold 360 despite being more expensive and late, a price drop won;'t save MS and magically make them outsell Ps4 WW, how do you think they outsell sony WW? It will not happen, and it won't be that close.

 

Halo, Sony will annouce uncharted and other big exclusives and PS4 will continue sailing. 360 had halo. Halo is not god, it is not going to single handedly make MS outsell the PS4, not even close. Playstation is too strong and has advantages this gen it never had last.

 

PS: Sony will end up dropping the price of PS4 eventually, like every console ever made. MS isn't gonna start dropping the price in the first year.

You can also say that RROD is the only reason Sony had a chance to catch up. That was one of the worst and most known about failure rates with a system, yet, how close is it? Even if they started selling at the same time. What would it be ahead by, Maybe 7 million.

So  clearly with PS2 running the show and xbox 360 coming back to take half the costumer base and on top of that having RROD.. I think you have clearly under rated what XBOX has achieved. All you ever do is down play, LOL......

If they weren't getting paid, the PS4 would definitely more easily apply to everything they said. 9/10 people I know would pick the ps4 over the X1. The only people I know who plan on getting the x1 are hard core ms fanboys.
