All of them.

The free game discount effect is apparently over for the XB1 SKU. It's back at 17th, PS4 still at 13rd

Expect at least 500k WW. It will most likely be more



I wish we has official number from Sony for this week



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

This is interesting.  A conversation had stating that multiplatform games push Xbox One sales.

For all intents and purposes I think that this gives evidence to the theory that free multiplatform games push Xbox One sales.  The fallacy of the Toastboy thread was that there were two different variables.  He said that Madden proved that multiplatform games push Xbox One sales but of course the PS4 and Xbox One were not on equal footing.  Only when you have to pay for both can you estimate the push, or lack their of.

If the current trends on this site hold up, it will easily pass 800k .

Gara gave a hint when he said it was their bigest week since December.  So this puts it above 700k at least.

Correct but What are the chances that only the UK say a boost like this?



And now the Destiny PS4 bundle is now back at 5, Destiny standalone XB1 game being back at 6. Destiny standalone PS4 game being back at 7.

Which is kind of crazy when you think about it (PS4 Destiny bundle > standalone XB1 game), I know it's also because this bundle is probably not available everywhere (sold out?), but still.

That PS4 white bundle has some impressive sex-appeal, along with all Sony accessories which have ranked very well this last week, the white DS4 (and black) and the white (and normal black) "gold" Sony headset, even the camera, how the irony, which sells incredibly well since the start.

BTW the standalone white PS4 is going to be available in France and Germany as a standalone or bundled with Driveclub in october or november 2014:

Sony really had some incredible luck when they decided to exclusively market/bundle Destiny, which was a risk, being a new IP! And after Watch_dogs too, a new IP! Hats to them!
