I can go into any number of JB Hi-fi's today and buy one over the counter. I'm in WA. If I get a chance I might just ask the local EB :)

Lol, is that really the best you can do? For your sake, I hope the PS4 wins the US, just so you don't have to use that ridiculous strawman.

He's clearly not from Australia, every store I go to they have plenty xBone, JB Hi Fi stores have on average 8 in stocks whereas PS4 are sold out till March/April but you need to be in pre order queue to recieve one. I'm highly likely missing out on Infamous bundle at end of March! |
Same story with the online stores too, JB Hifi are out of stock, Games Men are out of stock. (They get more on the 17th), Dicksmith are out of stock, EB Games are out of stock, Kmart are out of stock, BigW are out of stock of the Playstation 4.
Basically all the major retailers are out of stock, not sure what the situation is like in the capitals though, I don't have the privelage of lots of shopping stores available to me. :P
The Xbox One though is far more readily available, although several places are still out of stock of that console too.
Still, I personally think it's to soon to jump on the next-gen bandwagon, not enough half-decent games, I'm happy to wait untill late this year, my PC is more than ample for my next-generation needs at this point in time.
It's surprising though, cost can't be a massive factor in peoples purchasing decisions this time around, Sony has added more of an Australia Tax than Microsoft has for our country, the difference is almost pointless to mention. (Only $50.)
With that in mind a friend of mine did manage to snag a PS4, he has mixed feelings about all the pro's and con's of the new system, but it's still early days yet.

The backyard thing is pretty funny. "There are 2 Wii U's in my house. Fuck everyone else, I'm the only one that matters".
Any smart person would care more about worldwide sales than their own country's. Manufacturers and publishers sure as hell do.
New Zealand flipped for PS3 before Aussie did. And PS4 has been totally sold out here since launch whereas Xb one has always been in reasonable supply, though selling out at a few locations.

But PS4 will not stop Sony losing another billion by the end of this fiscal year. So sad...Microsoft, total different story. So sad...

You know MS's fans know Xbone lost the console war when they are talking about something else than the videogame industry. ^^^^
