Ehh I doubt it, even Madden sold better on PS4 and that had a bundle and exclusive advertising for XBO. The install base on PS4 is too great to overcome.
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Using Amazon best sellers to analyse a market is... Kinda ridiculous. Brick and mortar sales account for just as much really.

What? Where did I say anything about Destiny being a reason to upgrade. We are talking about copies of the Destiny game sold on the next generation consoles.
I agree that Destiny isn't a reason to upgrade (I just didn't 'get' the game when I played the Alpha and Beta).
PS, PS2, Gameboy Advance, PS3, PSP, PS4, Xbox One
The free game promotion is what will probably do it. It's technically not a bundle and it counts as a sale. I know at least two friends who pulled the trigger and bought an XB1 with Destiny.
So far every single multiplat game (except COD) has sold better on the PS4 than it did on the XB1. I don't see how that will change... especially for a game that is practically being marketed as a PS4 game.

madden rankings on amazon were realy bad for xb1 in compariosn to ps4
august:
ps4 standalone #16
xb1 ue edtion #36
xb1 standalone #39
xb1 bundle #50
ps4 ue editon #59
madden sales are totally different to the destiny one
so maybe its not the exclusive marketing what sells the games...
thats the point i base my prediciton on

In all fairness we have no clue how much better the XB1 version might have sold digitally due to the EA Access subscription. I mean, people were making second accounts just to play the game for another six hours.

I have misinterpreted what you were trying to say then sorry. What do you mean by it moving more on X1 disproving that a huge amount of core gamers are still on 360 waiting? I thought you meant higher sales on X1 for Destiny was suggestive of the little core gamers left on 360 and since Destiny has resulted in a huge amount of bundles being sold for both the X1 and PS4 the "wait" was over with its arrival as most core gamers left on the 360 would buy an X1 for Destiny, sorry.

yes, because thats the only point i base my "analyse" on...
its just one of many indicator. and lol its not even a bad or the worst one.
amazon rankings have proved they're kind of reliable if it comes to rough estimates or at least the right order
what do u use?
what better idicators do u have?
Yes, it could be possible as NPD doesn't track the Destiny white bundled game, Xbox fans traditionnaly like Bungie and FPS and the PS4 has only a ~22% lead in US.
Anyway sales will be close between the two standalone games in US.
