Because it was?

The first weeks of the price cut were great then it dropped off big time. I dont know whats so hard to ubderstand about that. 

Not to mention GameStop is one retailer. Best Buy and Wal Mart are massive electronics sellers as well and I know exactly zero about what they sell. I dont and have never claimed that i speak for industry sales.

No I find it hard to believe Xbone came back in 1 week and outsold PS4 with 2 weeks, and then falling back so hard that it was outsold by 70k in the end. Gamestop should be fairly representative of the overall market. The effect of the pricecut isnt gonna be exclusive to 1 retailer.

What is unbelievable? 

Price cut was announced long before the release of the kinectless xbox. A lot of people held back until it was released. A huge spike is expected. Common sense, really.


You dont understand. He said it outsold in 1 week what PS4 managed in all of June. If he said "this week Xbone outsold PS4 as expected due to the pricecut" yes I would believe that. It's completely unbelievable when PS4 was outsold for the whole month and then went on to outsell Xbone by 70k in the end. Anyways, BenV is in charge of only 1 store and I didn't know that, people act like his info is from all of the gamestop stores in the country instead of a single one.

Well if it makes you fucking happy im not gonna ever discuss fucking numbers again

Stop stalking my fucking posts every god damn thread

Im done with this fucking shit and sick of these posters with clear cut fucking agendas dragging my name through the mud every time they see something they dont believe or accept.

So there. Hopefully your fucking happy and I never have to talk to you again.

Do you REALLY need me to spell it out for you?  If you make a product, and it's being outsold by it's direct competitor by a margin of TWO TO ONE, you are failing!

If, after lowering the price, it is STILL getting outsold over 2:1 and you can't even overtake your competitor in your HOME MARKET, you are failing!

It's not just about selling a few million consoles, bub.  It's about seeding the market enough that in the NEXT 5 YEARS you have the momentum to GROW your sales!

With the Xbox DECLINING in sales globally, and failing to close the gap with Sony even in the US, more customers will choose the box that their friends already own, DECREASING future sales for the Xbox and INCREASING them for the PS4!  Additionally, more developers will target the PS4 and ignore the Xbox because they have MORE POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS on the PS4.  And that also makes it MORE EXPENSIVE if Microsoft want's to buy exclusivity, either timed or not.

Now, you can stick your head in the sand all you want.  It's not going to change the reality of what is happening this gen.  As I said before, it's all over but the crying.

Are you blind? He said xbox one was ahead of the ps4 as of the 16th of June, and that is 100% believable and EXPECTED, since the price cut was announced long ago and a lot of people were holding back on buying fucking xbones. 

Why are you after him? Need i remind you why you are the last person to talk about someone's else credibility ?

Go post some reviews on metacritic you fucking troll.

Wise decision. 

For what it's worth, your numbers have always been more credible than this very website.

I realise I've already put a stop to one part of the commotion in here, but please calm down.

And also stop quoting each other without shortening the quote trees first. Conegamer is having a heart attack in mod chat.
