Xbox One has been outselling PS4 for 4 weeks running in UK – Report

But PS4 still on top overall, industry mag claims.

Xbox One has been the UK's "best-selling games console for four weeks in a row", according to an MCV report.

The console is reported to have benefited from PlayStation 4's hardware shortages and Microsoft's official £30 price cut, which came into effect three weeks ago. The launch of Titanfall has helped as well, with Xbox One sales rising 96 per cent during the game's launch week.

However, despite Microsoft's recent sales success, PlayStation 4 allegedly remains the overall best-selling console of the two, with new supply boosting last week's hardware sales by 72 per cent.

MCV states that further PS4 stock will be available this weekend to coincide with the launch of InFamous: Second Son.

And no doubt Week ending 15 March.
Where's the 4th week though? W/E 23 March? Doubt it not with inFamous and Xb one probably falling back to pre TF launch sales. Are they claiming w/e 22 Feb? that would make VGC for that week way wrong.

See Argos selling a Titanfall + X1 bundle now for 469euros it's looking pretty competitive next to the PS4 can see why some people are considering it.

It's not just the price cut

It's not just the free game

It's mostly that you can't buy a PS4 in most places. Sure some are available, but not enough, there's a reason Amazon keeps selling out



I can't wait to see last week's sales when they're up because i want to know how many consoles did titanfall move.

With or without a pricecut? Becuase we'll never know.
