Forums - Gaming - Why no boost for XBOX ONE this week in USA?

so should we ask the same question about ps4, x1 dropped -2%  but ps4 dropped  -9%  and sold 100,000 more copies of Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor  so dont act like it should have sold more x1s than ps4s  ,bottom line forza h 2 is not a system seller  heck it only sold 179,000 this week  oct4th , it  was a launch week for the rest of the world and in china , so, ps4  outsold x1 with the big boost now , how will next weeks numbers look 65-75,000 global and i mean global no more whining from xbox fanboys talking about its not in all the territories heck  its now one up on sony with china .



Around the Network

There are enough xb1 owners out there to buy 200k copies of games without bumping the hardware sales this much... most people made their mind about the new consoles a few months ago... and Shadow of Mordor is much better on the PS4 or PC, so anyone who is really enthousiastic about the game and is looking for a console to play it (if they don't already have one)... chances are they will pick a PS4! (or upgrade their PC)... then again, PS4 sales weren't that great either, probably a lot of people bought consoles for Destiny, so it creates a small "slow down" in the sales, until the holiday craze really picks up!

 

As for FH2, as fun as it may be, most people have no buzz for the XB1, it's not even respected by most gamers out there (only the gamig press respect them, but they really like their MS PR).

65k-75k Globally?

Too low... of course less than 100K, but i said 80K-95K.



I don't think Sunset Overdrive will be a system seller, it I'll be a great game that's pretty much guaranteed but I'm not sensing a lot of hype around the game, still the bundle should help.
