The ratio of PlayStation 4 sales to Xbox One sales here in the UK is 1.5:1, PlayStation UK boss Fergal Gara said at an event this morning, attended by Eurogamer.

Sony, presumably.

PS3 to Xbox 360 sales, on the other hand, are the reverse - 1:1.51, Gara said, using the latest sales data.

PlayStation 4 is the fastest-selling console in UK history, so its lead is not unexpected. By the end of 2013, PS4 had amassed 4.2 million sales worldwide.

Xbox One's launch was twice as strong as Xbox 360's in the UK, but Microsoft's new machine has only managed to ship 3.9 million consoles worldwide so far.

Mind you, Xbox One is available in fewer countries than PS4 - a statistic that will even out over the course of the year.

Wow, Sony flipped the ratio completely. Hmm I wonder if MS will be able to keep up once PS4 stock become more readily available.
From here on out MS will have to launch a few months before Sony and at a lower or same price if they hope to compete with the brand in EU.

dup thread. sorry, to lazy to find and post the other thread.

Main factor is going to be the price.
MS just needs to retweak their UI so that users can use better without kinect and release a kinct-less SKU for less. That or just get their manufacturing costs down for the full bundle.

That is pretty good cause the UK was predominantly Xbox 360.

This is not  a good sign.. The UK was pretty much the only European country where the 360 did much better than the PS3. MS  needs to work really hard to get back some of that market share back from the PS4.

Ah my bad, its in the wrong section though! http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=177283

Likely will get even worse for x1 in time.
PS4 stock issues settling slowly.
