Goodbye Sony in the UK. Watch this sell a ton!!!!


It is still more expensive than the PS4. DELUSION!



Really. I make PS4 in UK £409.99 with 1 game and NO PS+

And NO TITANFALL.

Funny that, you can pre-order the Infamous bundle for 385  still cheaper. As for selling a ton 400 quid for an underpowered console, stop smoking that funny weed m8, or give me some. 

This underpowered console is confirmed by developers the new SDK makes 1080p now easily possible on all multiplatfrom games going forward. Parity will be better on 2nd gen games. And we will see what sells better. Titanfall or Infamous.

Parity, your delusional lol fair enough you should get a job as PR rep for Xbox your good at hiding the truth like them lol.

And that's how you get into the competition. Good Move by MS.

Even if xbox doubles in sales and keeps that pace, they will only be stopping the gap getting wider, sure as hell arent going to overtake.

I feel sorry for anyone in the UK who both preordered titanfall and bought a launch xbox one, you are being shafted.

Losing has its benefits. Great deals to be had.



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

Then if that's the case ppl should be banned for stating incorrect facts, you cannot magic away hardware differences that big with magic words.

Price cuts and deals like this when the console has only been out for three months aren't done because a company honestly feels it can push ahead. They're done because the company is desperate to just stay in the game.

The PS4, according to VGC, has a lead of about 230,000 consoles and climbing in the UK. That is a significant gap this early in the race. It's outselling the X1 by greater than a 2-to-1 ratio on a weekly basis for the last six weeks in a row. It also has yet to sell less than the X1 any given week since the PS4 launched there. Impressive considering how limited the PS4's availability has been.

The fact is that with this deal the X1 is still more expensive than the PS4 and even with the free copy of Titanfall, which will probably be for a limited time, a potential PS4 buyer could buy any game they wanted and spend no more than someone who buys the X1.

Also, this focus on a single title saving a console is highly misguided. One great game releasing for a console starting to struggle will not, alone, help it against a console that is able to sell out constantly despite not having any top-shelf retail exclusives yet. The original Xbox had some amazing games on it but even they couldn't help the console sell more than 25 million over 5 years.

Isn't this the same thing Xbox fans criticized Sony fans for last gen?  Even making a chalkboard of the list games that were supposed to save the PS3?  Now, they are so quick to adopt the same mindset.  Interesting, really.  And you have to look no further than the first Xbox to see it is not the case.  Halo 1&2 sold incredibly well on the Xbox, but that didn't change its HW numbers.  Same goes for Splinter Cell.

We'll have to start calling it the D-word.
