Forums - Sales Discussion - PS4 outselling Xbox One 3:1 in 2014

I think it will only increase as time goes on. Every effort Microsoft has made to increase sales has failed big time. The 2nd coming of christ himself (Titanfall) didn't do anything for the console. The Master Chief collection will increase sales for a week or so but that is it. Microsoft also have to deal with the Wii U and smash coming soon.

Nah. I don't expect it to keep outselling by such a big ratio. For 2014, it will probably outsell it by 2.5:1.
2014 was a bad year for X1...

Why would next year be any better? So far they have anounced less exclusives for next year, and sony has anounced at least double the a,ount of exclusves(And I mean AAA) and evenly distributed across the year. So people will look at that data going into the holidays and still be tripled in sales. Next year I expect 4-5 times in the begining of the year.

I expect the hype surrounding PS4 to fade slowly and the casual audiences looking for a media center to start looking at the XBOne, especially if they market it correctly.

But, eh, Japan will most likely guarantee the PS4 outselling the XBOne but at least 1.5:1 next year.



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

:3

And its only getting started. 6-1 7-1 lt eventually.



In any case, I don't think this generation will end with a 3:1 ratio in the PS4's favor!

I was obviously talking about a slightly lower ratio... >_>

Doesn't seem obvious to me since it wouldn't surprise me if it ends with a higher ratio. One only needs to look back at the PS2 generation to see the ratio go from something like 3:1 or 4:1 to 6-7:1

Let's agree to disagree, then ;)

2.5:1.

The 8th gen won't be PS4 domination like the 6th gen was PS2 domination! Just saying!

If that were true, then they would probably get a chromecast for $35 that does all those media things. And if they are casuals that dont care much for gaming the will get the $100 amazon fire tv, wich has some games, not as good ovbiusly, and has all the media crap for a much lower price. There is no reason to give $400, $500 for the real experience they offer, for this media crap.
